A spectacular showcase of an exceptional artistThis retrospective clearly shows that Lisa Gerrard is a unique and fascinating singer and composer. Lisa's musical journey began in the early 1980s when she formed the band Dead Can Dance with Australian Brendan Perry. Over the course of nine albums from 1984 to 1995, her musical style became its own timeless genre with influences from world music, medieval chants, baroque and Celtic sounds, and electronica.By the mid-1990s, Lisa's musical vision extended beyond the band's work. On her first solo album, The Mirror Pool, she accompanied the Victoria Philharmonic Orchestra. She collaborated with Pieter Bourke on the genre-spanning album "Duality" and composed the majestic "Immortal Memory" with Patrick Cassidy.In recent years Lisa has become a sought-after soundtrack composer - not surprising given the cinematic quality of her music. Some of the films she has contributed music to include Gladiator, Heat, Mission Impossible 2. Whale Rider", "Insider" and "Ali". "Gladiator" won a Golden Globe, and other works have been nominated for an Oscar and a Grammy.

Album spans genres Electronic, Ambient and Modern Classical.
