Description
A hushed frame drum thrum under The Mystic’s Dream lands firmer here, giving the chant a living heartbeat. Loreena McKennitt’s The Mask And Mirror Live captures the 90s cycle in concert, where the Celtic and Mediterranean threads feel earthier and more conversational. You can hear the band breathe through The Bonny Swans, strings biting a little harder before the chorus opens out. Marrakesh Night Market turns from studio tableau into a bustling lane, with oud and percussion trading glances. Pressed to LP, the stage has more space and the imaging snaps into focus, so voices and frame drums sit in their own air. File it near Dead Can Dance, though McKennitt leans warmer and more narrative. For a Saturday late drive across Melbourne, this sequence moves beautifully from trance to ballad without losing the thread. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Loreena McKennitt records online with us. Fans of the original studio album will appreciate the small dynamics and spoken asides that humanise these pieces. The pacing feels thoughtfully sequenced for a full side sit. Simply a solid way to rediscover the material without repeating the studio sheen again.
