ALBUM REVIEW
Karda Estra's new album continues Richard Wileman's unique exploration of progressive and classical styles. Centered around a haunting and powerful suite inspired by six Constellations, the album concludes with a beautiful interpretation of the STEVE HACKETT instrumental, 'Twice Around The Sun.' The suite runs a vast emotional range, from gentle melancholy passages featuring classical guitar and woodwind to huge, expansive bursts of sound and colour. Classical instrumentation and beautiful female harmony vox mix with electric guitars/bass/keys/drums, bound together by beautiful production ideas and great, progressive arrangements. (Cyclops)
