Was Loreena's fifth studio album (1994), praised for its evocative mix of Spanish, Celtic and Moroccan influences and a unique musical palette of instruments, which includes cello, uillean pipes, doumbek, tabla and oud. It transcends genres, layering the artist’s exquisite voice with a multitude of sonic textures, evoking melodic images of other times and other places. The album luxuriates in extended song structures; the LA Times described it as “music full of sombre depths, spiritual longings and age-old echoes.”
The package was designed by GRAMMY® Award-winner Jeri Heiden, of SMOG Design, Inc., Los Angeles. The new release is the second installment in an on-going series of definitive editions celebrating the highlights of McKennitt’s recording career to date; The Visit Definitive Edition was released in 2021.
