I've never heard a rendition of Cantara I didn't like... until now. The arrangement and Lisa's voice sound totally at odds with each other, and she seems completely aware of this, even as she's giving it her all.
Yes, I agree with others comments...it seems that musicians doesn't understand the whole piece, and they are playing free-jazz...sad . Poor Lisa Gerrard, she seems aware of that
@Joakim4803 - Lisa Gerrard would have practiced this song at least 2-3 times with this orchestra before performing this live. So she knew exactly how they were going to play beforehand.
The arrangement must be aggressive, or become aggressive alongside Lisa. The string harmonies at the beginning are a nice touch for that part of the song, but the smooth textures of the strings don't carry through to the thunderous crescendo that the song demands. Also, the room has a very strong reverberation that smears so much of the sharpness and punctuation that this piece requires. The instrumentation and the room were doomed from the beginning. But I guess, how can you not play Cantara? If I were in the audience I would be far more devastated if they had not.
I have been in love with Lisa since 1990 but I have to agree with those here you say this particular setup doesn't work well. Not Lisa's fault. My biggest gripe is that the powerful, enchantig drum beat that makes this song is totally missing here, along with the other pieces I've heard from this show. I guess I expected that an orchestra would sound even fuller than just the band but that is 100% not the case. And yes, I also think Lisa is not happy here - you can see it. Shame cause it was a great opportunity lost :(

Сантара- самая запоминающаяся у этого коллектива песня. Интересно, приятно послушать симфо- версию.

The percussion is not enough. Maybe it sounded better there in the hall?
Hmm this was about 10bpm too fast and the arrangement didn't sound right either. That said you cann't fault her vocals.

Looked like a fun song
Tough crowd!
Уже не та...
Пересела с хмурого на ганжу)
A stupendous song but this rendition doesn't have the right emotional feel and is too fast. Lisa Gerrard was as awesome as ever, though :-)
Nooo..... Lisa qué te panzó!!? Se acabó el embrujo caray...
Less good tnan years ago, of course...
my god what a bad arrangement! Poor Lisa
This is probably the worst version of Cantara...
Mizake The Mizan totally agreed. Who picked that bongo?
haha indeed
It is
Totally agree
