Seth Colter Walls says, "Few composers have broader stylistic reach. But on a new album, “A Prayer for Lester Bowie,” he makes it all cohere."

Dave Sumner says, "Sanford’s ensemble moves with a subtle grace and unerring bounce in its step."

The album is now available on CD and in digital format.

Phil Freeman says the album, "emphasizes exciting, boundary-stretching compositions performed in a vibrant style."

Giovanni Russonello calls the album, "a glorious hodgepodge of large-ensemble synchronicity and wah-wah-drenched blazes."

Sanford's piece is a sonic exploration that is both funky and freaky.

Sanford's composition is inspired by rollercoasters and features trumpeter Hugh Ragin.
