Description

Composing, writing the story, casting from hundreds of people, and putting this all together has been very refreshing and interesting for me, says Tolkki. I think it is the next logical step for me. He continues, This album has just basically one long song, but there are 16 themes that are bound together by a story in which I have used my long time interest in philosophy, psychology and spirituality. At the end of the day, it really has just two main themes: love and the fight between good and evil. As the name indicates, there will be another part to this saga. It really is a very interesting story about an old theme, but I think I have managed to take it somewhere that no one has been before. Featuring the vocal talents of Jennifer Sowle, Aino Laos, Heikki Poyhia and Janette Sainio, this album is a breathtaking experience of emotions. Each singer was carefully chosen for her/his respective roles and they will enhance the musical journey in a way that has never really been heard before. Tolkki wrote, mixed, produced and played all instruments (except drums, which were handled by Mirka Rantanen).
