Wow thanks. Saana is not an easy record. To be able to understand the
whole story it has to be listened completely. Preferably loud and in the dark.
If there was anything that was in my mind when I was doing this then it was
the word you used as well: "beauty". I am pretty much writing about everything that is not popular at the moment and about good virtues such as love, dignity, empathy and honesty. Those words have no meaning in today's world but they have in my life.
Part 2 is in the works story wise. There will be some very unexpected twists in the story and it will build up. The whole 2 records are meant to be listened
in a row, like a film. And the story grows and unfolds more and more...
Thanks for buying it. Made me happy to read your words:)

yep there is a lot of beauty in the album whether it be the story, the singing or the music but after listing to the album a few times I would say love is even bigger and in the story seems to be the most important. Cant wait to know what happens next >.<!

P.S Timo, the picture of you in page 48 of the booklet is awesome!

Hei!
I just bought the digital album a couple of hours ago, and I must admit it's REALLY good!!!
Sounds a bit like the best ballad songs from Beto Vasquez's Infinity (the ones sang by Tarja) mixed with The Phantom Of The Opera and the best stuffs from Hymn To Life album. I really don't understand how could the guys at Frontier Records be disappointed in it. Perhaps they were expecting one (among thousands) metal/rock opera with double bass drums and which has nothing to do with the concept of "opera"?

What's is for sure, is that this Saana project is unique. If I'm not mistaken, this is the really first time that a "rock opera" / "concept album" contains a movie so the people can see a visual story as well.
Really beautiful and relaxing music. I'm sure Jennifer, Aino and Keikki must be proud to be a part of this project

Any chance there will be an LP/vinyl version of Saana in the future?

So if I want everything (all the interviews, the video shoots, booklets etc) then I would need to buy all the CDs and DVDs?

Good that you allow MasterCard usage. I don't have a credit card yet, being a student, but do have a MasterCard and have the possibility to pre-order Saana.

Will you consider making a film for Sanna pt 2 too? And will you eventually release it as a "double pack"?
