Hayley Westenra 海莉·韦斯顿 的第三张个人专辑——《Treasure 珍重》在爱尔兰都柏林录制。这张专辑很个人化，收录了一些古典金曲和爱尔兰、毛利族民歌，再现了 Hayley Westenra 海莉·韦斯顿 卓越的音乐之路上值得她珍重的人和地。这也是她第一次专辑里包含她自己原创的曲目。《Treasure 珍重》是对 Hayley Westenra 海莉·韦斯顿 家族渊源的一次礼赞，是对她的祖父母19世纪80年代随着爱尔兰第一艘驶向新西兰的船只穿越世界的旅程的一次礼赞。正是这一次旅程，把他们丰富的音乐遗产带往了那里。她的祖母是一名歌手，祖父是一名手风琴演奏家，他们都给 Hayley Westenra 海莉·韦斯顿 的音乐发展产生了重大影响。专辑里《Let Me Lie》与《Summer Rain》是 Hayley Westenra 海莉·韦斯顿 自己创作的；《E Para Ra》是一首毛利族情歌；《One Fine Day》来自Puccini的歌剧蝴蝶夫人。另外还有众多爱尔兰民歌。

Recorded in Dublin, Ireland, Hayley Westenra’s third solo album is a very personal collection of classical arias, Irish and Maori folk songs - representing treasured people and places in her remarkable musical journey. For the first time the album also includes several original tracks written by Hayley herself.

"Treasure" is a celebration of Hayley’s family roots, and her grandparent’s journey across the World on the first boat that left Ireland for New Zealand in the 1880s - taking with them a rich musical heritage. Her grandmother - a singer, and her grandfather, who played the accordion, were to be important influences on Hayley’s musical development.
