Composer and bandleader Maria Schneider’s music blurs the lines between genres, making her list of commissioners and collaborators quite varied, stretching from Jazz at Lincoln Center to the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra to David Bowie. The New York Times calls Schneider a “composer and orchestrator of penetrating insight,” and NPR deems her “a national treasure.” Her orchestra is a 17-member collective made up of many of the finest musicians in jazz today. The recipient of five Grammy Awards and 12 nominations, Schneider and her orchestra have performed at festivals and concert halls worldwide. Don’t miss this Savannah debut!
