Our Take

The Korgis and the Rialto Symphony Orchestra have joined forces on their new album Orchestrations, and let me tell you, it is a wild ride from start to finish. The Korgis, known for their catchy hooks and infectious melodies, have teamed up with the classical sophistication of the Rialto Symphony Orchestra, creating a mash-up of genres that shouldn't work but somehow does.

The album kicks off with the upbeat track "Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime," which combines the Korgis' signature pop sensibilities with the lush, sweeping strings of the orchestra. It's a match made in musical heaven, and sets the tone for the rest of the album.

As the album progresses, we are treated to reimagined versions of Korgis classics like "If I Had You" and "Dumb Waiters," each one more epic than the last. The orchestral arrangements add a whole new dimension to these songs, breathing new life into them and giving them a fresh, dynamic feel.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on Orchestrations. The album takes a dark turn with tracks like "Mount Everest Sings the Blues," a brooding, atmospheric piece that showcases the Korgis' more introspective side. It's a powerful moment on an album that is full of surprises and delights.

In conclusion, Orchestrations is a must-listen for fans of both the Korgis and orchestral music. It's a bold experiment that pays off in spades, and showcases the versatility and creativity of both the band and the orchestra. So go ahead, give it a spin - you won't be disappointed.
