About The Host of Seraphim

The Host of Seraphim stands as a pivotal track from The Serpent's Egg, released on October 24, 1988. The song showcases Lisa Gerrard's remarkable four-octave vocal range, combining Gregorian chant-inspired melodies with Middle Eastern musical elements. Its ethereal soundscape is created through a sophisticated layering of synthesizers, traditional instruments, and Gerrard's glossolalia (singing in an invented language) - a signature technique she developed to transcend linguistic barriers. .
