  • Description

    Another culmination of Harold Danko's half a century-long fascination and study of Igor Stravinsky's groundbreaking ballet music The Rite of Spring (world-premiered in 1913 in Paris causing a riot among the audience). Danko's previous release 'Spring Garden' (SCCD31909), his first attempt of exploring and adapting Stravinsky's material with Danko's original quartet of the '90s, which drew a slew of applaud from critics and public alike. 'Rite Notes' shares with us his interpretation in a solo setting.

    "Each excerpt on Spring Garden is expanded into often unexpected directions, building upon the late maestro's genius, with Danko taking rhythmic and melodic liberties, transforming this century-old music into compelling jazz." - Ken Dryden, New York City Jazz Records on 'Spring Garden'

    Harold Danko: piano
