THE SANDPIPERS SYMPHONY

Karfagen's "The Sandpipers Symphony" is a solid effort that showcases new tracks and alternate versions of previously released tracks. All of the tracks on this album were recorded between 2010 and 2017, containing a wide range of sounds and textures. The new material found here contains various "call-backs" to his previous albums while elaborating on those musical ideas. The real strength found on this album are the new tracks (1-7) which showcases impressive musicianship and songwriting. However, the rest of the tracks still are an interesting listen to fans of Antony Kalugin's music. While the album is an enjoyable listen, it doesn't quite reach the heights Antony Kalugin's essential discography. Overall, "The Sandpipers Symphony" is a good addition to any fan of the genre but it may not leave a lasting impact on those looking for groundbreaking Antony Kalugin release.
