Spring Garden celebrates the abundant musical seeds planted more than a century ago by Igor Stravinsky in the Rite of Spring. Danko’s liner notes reveal his long-standing fascination with Stravinsky’s masterpiece and details involved in the creation and recording of this ambitious project.
“While he has arrived at his own sound, there's still a sense of adventurousness and discovery about Danko's approach to music …. Danko is fundamentally a deeply lyrical and swinging pianist, who combines the virtues of inside and outside playing, and he is still perfecting his music, learning new ways of approaching it. It's a process that started long time ago.” (Jakob Baekgaard - AAJ)
