Sound of Surprise is an album by saxophonist Lee Konitz recorded in 1999 and released on the French RCA Victor label.

[1][2] Michael G. Nastos of Allmusic said "Yet another fine recording from Konitz, this adds to an already immense discography that seems to get broader and deeper as it lengthens".

[3] In JazzTimes, Doug Ramsey wrote: "Moving deeper into his 70s, Konitz still records prolifically on a variety of labels, pursuing improvisation with a purity of conception and dedication to avoidance of cliches and practiced licks.

[4] On All About Jazz, Marc Corotto noted "Konitz plays with his subtle subversive familiarity.

... Trading saxophone duets and guitar/sax spots, Konitz work is just another day at the office.
