Sylvie Courvoisier live in New York

Experience Sylvie Courvoisier live on June 28th

Sylvie Courvoisier will perform at the Irish Arts Center in New York City on June 28, 2026. Courvoisier is a French-American pianist and composer known for her highly individual approach to jazz and improvised music. Her style blends elements of free improvisation, modern classical music, and a distinctly lyrical sensibility. Often working in trio formations—notably with Mark Feldman and Eric McPherson—and as a solo performer, Courvoisier’s compositions frequently explore extended techniques on the piano and utilize complex harmonic structures while maintaining a strong melodic core. She has released numerous albums under labels like ECM Records and has collaborated with artists across diverse musical genres.

The Irish Arts Center, located in Hell’s Kitchen, Manhattan, is dedicated to bringing Irish arts and culture to an American audience. Established in 1972, it originally functioned as a community resource and performance space before undergoing a significant expansion and relocation in 2022 to a purpose-built facility. The center hosts a wide range of programming including music, dance, theatre, literature, visual arts, and language classes.
