Self-produced and boasting an exotic palette of instrumentation from cello and uillean pipes to dumbeg, tabla and oud, Loreena's fifth studio album was released in 1994 and has sold several million copies worldwide.
Spanning Spanish, Celtic and Moroccan influences, The Mask And Mirror follows paths of inspiration from Ireland to Santiago de Compostella to the Middle East.
Accompanying musical settings of poems by St. John of the Cross and Shakespeare are eclectic, richly-textured originals including the seductively dramatic The Mystic's Dream and Marrakesh Night Market. (Burning Shed)
Many thanks Andy!!
