Secret Garden
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Secret Garden is an Irish-Norwegian duo playing New Instrumental Music, also understood by some as Neo-classical music.It features the Irish violinist Fionnuala Sherry and the Norwegian composer/pianist Rolf Løvland.
Ten years earlier Rolf Løvland also co-wrote the song "La det swinge" (Let it swing) that secured Norway its first Eurovision Song Contest victory in 1985.
Their success at Eurovision spearheaded the success of their first album Songs from a Secret Garden. Barbra Streisand adapted "Heartstrings" from this album as the song "I've Dreamed Of You" on her A Love Like Ours album. She also used "Heartstrings" in her wedding to James Brolin.
The album White Stones followed in 1997 also making the top ten on Billboard New Age charts. Dawn of a New Century, again with lyrics by Petter Skavlan, in 1999, Dreamcatcher in 2001 and Once In a Red Moon also enjoyed success around the world including reaching top ten on the Billboard.
Their most famous song "You Raise Me Up", performed by Brian Kennedy has been recorded by more than a hundred other artists. This song is very similar in rhythm and harmony to the Irish Folk song "Danny Boy" except for the second half of the phrase.Secret Garden has released a Dreamcatcher.
