THE REVIEW
It seems that for her first public appearances she would drape a simple white fabric around her body, almost to emphasize her "immateriality," her essentiality, her art.
Since then, time has passed but her attire for live performances seems to have remained the same! We know that what a woman wears is a reflection of her personality and Lisa Gerrard has personality to spare.
This solo work does not disappoint but confirms her undeniable talent and the magic of her wonderful voice.
It is an intimate, dreamlike, and introspective journey. Time and space do not exist, nor do references; the impression is of a strong connection, as if someone were sharing their deepest secrets with us.
The differences with the Dead Can Dance albums are substantial: subtle percussion (by Pieter Bourke), little experimentation, and an essential work where the voice enchants and piano, flute, and violins serve as a backdrop.
Who is this work for? Only for lovers, of course and only for those who were curious to hear what could arise from this ethereal and lunar soul without the "brightness" of her partner Brendan Perry.
