‘’Songs in the Circle of Time’’, Secret Gardens 12th studio album it out now! The album is an enchanting blend of dreamy melodies and powerful arrangements, transporting listeners to a world of beauty and timeless elegance.
Rolf explains:
“We chose this title because we feel it’s descriptive of our music. The sources of inspiration are many and feel timeless, from 17th century baroque – classical music and
contemporary – hopefully melting into our own style” Fionnuala adds: “In many ways it’s a classic Secret Garden album with mostly instrumental music, but also a couple of vocal songs”
Track list:
1. Renaissance
2. Lullaby For Grown Ups
3. Fionnuala’s Violin
4. Irish Waltz
5. Cathedral
6. Twilight Song
7. Session
8. Timelessly In Love
9. Breathe
10. Liberty
11. Solace
12. Stepping Up
13. Epilogue
This album is recorded in two parts. “We started with our band recording 6 songs in June of last year and produced the second part of 7 songs with piano and orchestra during the winter – all music featuring Fionnuala on violin. We also had the joy of recording with some traditional players from Ireland and Norway, Maírtín O’Connor (accordion) and Robbie Harries (bodhrán) from Ireland and Annbjørg Lien (Hardanger Fiddle) and Hans Fredrik Jacobsen (whistles) from Norway.” There are also two new vocal tracks on the album. One duet performed by Espen Grjotheim and Cathrine Iversen – an Italian inspired love song called ‘’Timelessly in love’’, and the song ‘’Lullaby for Grown-Ups'’ featuring Espen Grjotheim.
The recording process of the album is documented by a self-produced video with a couple of cameras rolling in the studios. The videos and documentary will be available on Secret Gardens official YouTube and video channels.
‘’Songs in the Circle of Time’’ is written and produced by Rolf Løvland and co-produced by Fionnuala Sherry for Dreamcatcher Productions and distributed and marketed by Universal Music. The new album will released in Dolby Atmos, and even before August, Secret Gardens 2019 album ‘’Storyteller’’ will also be available in Dolby Atmos – mixed by Roald Råsberg in Sanden Studio.
