About the Album:
Notes of the Observer is an album that transcends conventional boundaries, putting the clarinet in an intricate blend of ambient electronic, new age, cross-over jazz, and neo-classical elements. Eight years in the making, this work is a tribute to Stefan’s deep respect for nature and his meticulous approach to musical composition.

In its original form, Notes of the Observer has already received critical acclaim for its ability to merge the past with the future, combining elements of timeless genres with a forward-thinking approach. Queen City Sounds and Art describes it as “…fusing a pastoral quality with one of a post-dystopian future.” Kelsey Paquin of The Clarinet writes in the August 2025 audio review: “The sparseness of technical virtuosity in the clarinet creates an ambient contemplativeness that transcends the listener to the artist’s world. Kristinkov’s performance on this album is humbling, showcasing how music and art do not have to be flashy or ornate to be moving and meaningful. The minimalist and sustained clarinet writing showcases his capacity for creating long and carefully crafted phrases, as well as his mastery of connection throughout all registers of the instrument.” Now, with the Dolby Atmos Spatial Audio version, this unique sonic landscape has been elevated, offering a truly immersive, 360-degree listening experience that places the listener at the center of Stefan’s sonic world.
