1999年在世纪之交的历史时刻，神秘园的第三张唱片《新世纪的黎明》开始在全世界发行。与前两张专辑相比，新专辑确实有不少新内容加入，他们已开始涉入新的音乐领域，包括雪丽参加歌曲演唱。他们还与挪威歌手anne karin knag及美国歌手nikki matheson合作演唱；爱尔兰合唱团的“anuna”和挪威吉他传奇人物terijerypdal也假如加入到该唱片的制作。虽然这张唱片在风格上有不同的变化，但真实的冥想和追寻内心的方式再一次贯穿在《新世纪的黎明》的音乐作品中。
这张专辑基本保持了一惯的神秘园风格，与前两张相比人声部分加大了，特别是《祈祷》(Prayer)完全可以称之为歌，而且是非常动人的一首歌。最后一首《新世纪的曙光》( Dawn Of A New Century ）是乐队少有的大气一点的作品。

短短一年之后，神秘园的第二张专辑迅速登场。这次虽然也保留了之前的温馨柔板曲，但专辑中最引人注目的其实是"Steps", "Moving", "Windancer", "Escape"这4首少见的快板曲目。尤其是"Steps"罕见的7/8拍节奏和行云流水般的旋律，可谓抢尽了听众们的耳朵 。但由此带来的问题就是专辑曲目的不协调，慢板曲目相比之下黯然失色，在一定程度上破坏了音乐的平衡感。这可能是他们当初意想不到的结果吧？
但是这张专辑有一个值得称道之处，那就是它的音乐主题。正如题目"White Stones"所述，专辑主题的灵感来自于格林童话故事《汉赛尔与格莱特 （Hansel and Gretel）》：
“很久以前有一对穷苦的夫妇实在养不起自己的孩子了，想狠心抛弃他们，就把孩子带到森林深处。聪明的孩子知道父母不要他们了，所以他们偷偷在口袋里装了好多白色的小石子，一路沿途撒下白石子做记号。在父母走后，他们借助月光的反射，一颗一颗地捡起白石子。就这样，他们又回到了家里，感动的父母于是再也不忍心抛弃他们了。”
神秘园以“白石”为名，正是希望他们的每一首曲子，都是引领听众通往希望之路的标石。而且，曲名也和故事的发展相吻合。"Steps", "Hymn To Hope", "Moving", "Escape", "Home", "Illumination"等等。侧耳聆听，音乐将带领我们，一步步走向我们心中神往的地方。

神秘园是一支著名的新世纪音乐风格的乐队，它由挪威作曲家兼键盘手（罗尔夫. 劳弗兰）和爱尔兰女小提琴手（菲奥诺拉.莎莉）组成。1994年， 他们在欧洲歌唱大赛中初次相遇，那时劳弗兰已是知名的词曲作家，由于对音乐有着难以想象的相同的理解，他们走到了一起。1995年 ，他们的探路之作《夜曲》一举夺得欧洲歌唱大赛冠军 1996年4月推出首张专辑《来自神秘园的歌》大获成功，影响遍及世界各地。乐队溶合了爱尔兰空灵飘渺的乐风以及挪威民族音乐及古典音乐，乐曲恬静深远，自然流畅，使人不知不觉便已溶入其中。

Cara Dillon, one of the most celebrated singers in Irish Folk music, announces the release of her brand new album Wanderer. For this, her seventh album, the award-winning singer once again collaborates with longtime musical partner, producer and husband Sam Lakeman to offer a collection of songs featuring intimate performances that capture some of her most moving vocal performances to date. Building upon a career based on folk songs rooted in time and place, Wanderer sees Cara delve deeper into the tradition, not finding reasons to circumvent it. The underlying theme being the movement of people, of emigration and the pursuit of love. It's a collection that speaks to Cara's fascination with songs of departure and the powerful desire to belong.
Each of the album's ten tracks feature beautifully sparse piano and acoustic guitar arrangements by Sam Lakeman, who also produces. His experience and expertise were both key in making this album stand apart from Cara's previous. It's warm and intimate; the mood is stripped back and relaxed; the songs are beautiful and full of space with every moment thoroughly self-assured. Guest performances by Kris Drever, John Smith, Justin Adams, Niall Murphy and Ben Nicholls provide modest and expressive backing, helping to make this a sincere and understated work of art.
Throughout an enviable career which has seen her explore opportunities to tread many different paths – from releasing folk crossover albums on indie label Rough Trade; working on Disney soundtracks to collaborations with leading UK dance DJ/producers – Cara has continuously chosen to firmly plant herself within the landscape of her cultural heritage and that's something to celebrate. With a more mature and reflective tone, Wanderer will no doubt transcend genres just as effortlessly as her highly successful albums Hill Of Thieves (2009) and A Thousand Hearts (2014) and increase her already impressive list of fans. "What may well be the world's most beautiful female voice" - MOJO "Loved every single album you've put out...sublime, heavily recommend to anyone." - Ed Sheeran "This woman's voice holds so many beautiful memories in my heart." - Sam Smith "Dillon's crystalline, angelic voice, an instrument of rare beauty capable of melting the sternest of hearts" - BBC
