The music community consists of nineteen orchestral musicians, not all of which are an integral part of the formation. Regular is "Secret Garden" to hear with 8 members on stage. Depending on the program, this figure varies widely. From a duo bishin for full symphony orchestra together with the choir, they occur very variable and flexible.
Stylistically, this music is categorized in the areas of Irish Folk and New Age. The transition between these two genres is always fluent. "Secret Garden" concentrate musically primarily on a harmonious symbiosis less vocal and orchestral much use. Only sparse but very harmonious conduct the votes a fascinating string passages, which often find in the middle of its climax. The same task comes to the keyboard, which is often used in the opening sequence, and then the remaining fragments of melody far heritage slides discreetly in the background.
The supporting element violin complement various other instruments. Metal flutes, bagpipes, oboe, English horn, Irish harp, guitar, bass guitar, drums and percussions blend masterfully into one unit. The result is truly compelling. Rarely these instruments could be heard in such a brilliant cooperation. The spherical sounds can be heard over and over again and cause no disharmony. For metal flutes, bagpipes, oboes and an Irish harp are mainly used. This achieves that a certain meditative note resonates in the compositions.
An unusual wake surreal tinged atmosphere exudes this music further by their traumassoziierenden sounds. The melodies are very emotional, touching deep, are transfigured and strangely catchy. A somnambulistic rollercoaster of emotions. Sometimes cheerful and happy, then very sentimental and a bit melancholic. Still not reassuring because of the overflowing emotions. Therein probably lies the claim of this music. And last but not least the famous compositions Lövland`s this is due to. Less suitable for consumption than for enjoyment.
Conclusion: A highly sophisticated and stylistically coherent album.
