Lisa Gerrard

Something a bit different this time - Lisa Gerrard and Sanvean. This song is achingly beautiful and her voice just soars and captivates. This was played at our wedding for the entry of the bride. It made a wonderful occasion even better.

I first became aware of Lisa Gerrard in the 1980s. She was part of a cooperative who released an album called This Mortal Coil - It'll end in tears. At the time the standout track was the Liz Fraser's cover of the Tim Buckley Song to the Siren. However I became increasingly fond of Dead Can Dance and Lisa Gerrard. If you saw the film Gladiator you heard her music as she wrote the score with Hans Zimmer.

I just love this song. I love watching people's faces as they hear it for the first time. If you have never heard it listen now. Let me know what you think of it.
