Press play and enter the world of Loreena McKennitt, where walls dissolve into thick, billowing mists as the ground beneath your feet turns to compacted earth and the sky above opens up to reveal a black cloak dotted with shimmering stars draped beneath silk-like clouds. Were McKennitt's composing and songwriting abilities lacking of any luster (as they most certainly are not), her voice would still possess the strength to hold her fifth album, The Mask and Mirror, up on its own. But the combination of this talented woman's vocal prowess and songwriting ability makes her all the more similar to her work – ethereal and almost unbelievable in its level of quality.
To commemorate the 30th-anniversary of her breakthrough album, Mask And The Mirror, Loreena McKennitt presents this live album recorded in San Francisco on May 19, 1994. Featuring staples from the McKennitt canon, including “The Mystic's Dream,” “The Bonny Swans,” “Marrakesh Night Market” and “The Two Trees.”
