Lisa Gerrard, with her magnificent voice has been more active on the side projects than Brendan Perry has. Her last collaborative effort was on the 2020 release of the Henryk Górecki classic, Symphony No. 3: Symphony of Sorrowful Songs, with The Genesis Orchestra conducted by Yordan Kamdzhalov, which is immensely phenomenal!
On May 7, Lisa Gerrard returns to recorded music with a new collaborative work with Jules Maxwell. The new album is being called Burn. Previously, Lisa Gerrard has worked with Jules Maxwell on the 2018 BooCheeMish album of The Mystery Of The Bulgarian Voices. They penned and collaborated on 4 tracks for that album.
