Navajo singer Marilyn Help and University of New Mexico music professor Ellen McCullough-Brabson have collaborated on a book and companion CD showcasing non-sacred traditional songs of the Navajo Nation.

The pair will be discussing "We'll Be In Your Mountains, We'll Be In Your Songs" tomorrow at the Wheelright Museum of the American Indian in Santa Fe. Their project features 12 songs which are accompanied by historical, cultural, and geographical background about the Navajo and Help's own family.

Lyrics and music to each of the songs are included, as well as instructions for dancing to them.
