Longtime collaborators, they bring years of shared musical history into an intimate and concentrated dialogue, creating music shaped by deep listening, restraint, and expressive precision.
Hailed by The New York Review of Books as one of America’s “most powerful storytellers,” Smith joins the Swiss-American Courvoisier—praised by The New York Times for her “audacity and poise”—for a milestone collaboration of rare poetic force.
Critics hail Angel Falls as a rare, magical duet. Courvoisier and Smith abandon convention and virtuosity, letting form emerge naturally to create a bold, poetic collaboration built on trust, risk, and decades of shared experience.
Sets at 8:30 & 10pm
