Pianists Sylvie Courvoisier and Cory Smythe interpret and reimagine Stravinsky’s landmark The Rite of Spring on their breathtaking new album The Rite of Spring – Spectre d’un songe, due out May 19, 2023 via Pyroclastic Records, features a stunning version of the iconic composition paired with Courvoisier’s newly composed improvisation-rich response, “Spectre d’un songe” “Courvoisier keeps you on the edge of your seat because it feels like the piano cannot contain her. Her careening solos seem to overwhelm and overflow the keyboard and keep spilling." – Thomas Conrad, JazzTimes
