The Mirror Pool is the debut album by the female half of Australian duo Dead Can Dance, Lisa Gerrard. The music on this album is not much different from what we are used to hearing from Dead Can Dance. This album also contains classical and medieval oriented, heavily orchestrated music. These songs alternate with acoustic folk tinged songs, using traditional musical instruments such as the Greek
… bouzouki, the Indian tablas and the Chinese dulcimer. Gerrard's wordless vocals in particular give this album a mystical character, which at times captivates but where you sometimes feel the need to put on something else in between.more
