White Stones is the follow up of Songs from a Secret Garden. It still keeps the spirit of the previous album but also has new light and new moods.Rolf and Fi take the inspiration from the fairytale of Hansel and Gretel- all songs tell this story beautifully.We are deeply moved by the haunting melodies,Rolf calm, heart touching piano sound and Fionnuala passionate violin playing.Unlike Song from a Secret Garden,White stoness have both up tempo songs and slow sad songs. Upbeat songs like Steps, Moving, Escape make us want to dance and go with the melodies'flow. Slow songs have full of life and love messages.Hymn to Hope reminds me of keeping our spirits high even we're sorrowful.Passacalia and Santuary are dedicated to the duo's fathers. Home is a calm solo piano song- a remind of where we belong.First day of spring, Illumination, Reflection and Appasionate are dreamy and magical.. The making of White Stones really match the music's messgaes: During recording sessions of this album,Fi suffered with her shoulder's injury.Despite the pain, she "wanted to work even more".And that explains why this album is a magic- the duo gave their souls, their hearts,talent and inspiration to every melody, every note they play.
