Two new albums due
14 February 03
4AD is delighted to announce that Lisa Gerrard will release two new albums - her first releases since "Duality" came out in 1998. Lisa has been extremely busy in Hollywood since she last found time to make a record for 4AD - and extremely successful, too. Her music for "Gladiator", composed in collaboration with Hans Zimmer, was awarded a Golden Globe and nominated for an Oscar, and she has also worked on high profile films like Ali and The Insider. However, Autumn 2002 saw her making a bolt for her studio in Melbourne with fellow composer Patrick Cassidy, and three months of high intensity work brought forth "Immortal Memory". More information will be available soon. Later this month Lisa will perform a low-key show as part of the Morning Star Concert for West Papua on February 28th at the Melbourne Concert Hall - more info: www.morningstarconcert.com
2002 also saw Lisa writing the music for an independent New Zealand film called "Whale Rider". 4AD will be tying the release of this soundtrack into the release of the film, which has already won prestigious awards at the Toronto film festival and the Sundance film festival.
