Title: "Kristina" is simply gorgeous, powerful stuff
Review: This work snuck up on me in unexpected ways, and when a Finnish relative send me the CD's, I soon got hooked.I had not been an ABBA fan, but I did like Chess quite a bit. Kristina seems to me to be the serious work that Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus had in them all the time and finally got out. It's a sprawling, lush, varied work that simultaneously bridges pop, Swedish folk, rock, and classical genres in a single work that holds up as a cohesive piece. Amazing. I've since gotten Andersson's "Klinga Mina Klocker" and his "Benny Andersson Orchestra" CD's and Kristina seems like a logical development from these efforts.If you haven't heard it yet, buy it - it will sink its beautiful hooks into you before long.
