A breathtakingly gorgeous collaboration between Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance and Irish composer Patrick Cassidy. Cassidy's dramatic, stately, symphonic arrangements prove a sublime foil for Gerrard's indescribably powerful, sorrowful voice, and the resulting album is possibly the most satisfying of her many post-DCD efforts. Highly recommended.
