Payare Featured as Gramophone’s November Cover Story on the Release Day of New Album with OSM

Oct 30, 2026

Rafael Payare and the OSM release a new album on Pentatone today that marks their fifth recording together, featuring Ravel’s Daphnis et Chloé and Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring (Le sacre du printemps). The release is at the forefront of Gramophone‘s November cover story on Payare, also out today. The conductor spoke with the magazine about the new album, as well as his dynamic relationship with the OSM.

Says Payare:

“Beneath their differences, these two works share the same evocative power, where orchestral color becomes a dramatic language in its own right. This recording reflects that shared artistic journey, shaped by the OSM’s singular sonority and the incomparable acoustics of the Maison symphonique.”
