About Sylvie Courvoisier
Known for an unusual, impulsive style that weds the chamber music of her European upbringing with the hook-filled jazz of her adopted home of New York City, composer/pianist Sylvie Courvoisier emerged in the mid-'90s with a pair of quintet albums, 1994's Sauvagerie Courtoise (as the Sylvie Courvoisier Quintetto) and 1996's Ocre. A highly collaborative artist, she recorded with musicians such as violinist Mark Feldman and John Zorn before eventually releasing her solo piano debut, Signs and Epigrams, in 2007. She followed it with numerous further collaborations, including several with Feldman and a series of albums with her trio with bassist Drew Gress and drummer Kenny Wollesen. In 2021, Lockdown teamed Courvoisier with woodwindist Ned Rothenberg and percussionist Julian Sartorius.
