Maria Schneider Orchestra – Concert in the Garden (CD, Album, ArtistShare 0001)

Why This CD Matters
Maria Schneider’s large jazz orchestra combines richly arranged big-band writing with the colors of classical music, Brazilian choro, and flamenco. The five-part program moves from the expansive title composition through the “Three Romances” sequence to the flamenco-inflected “Bulería, Soleá y Rumba.” The result gives the ensemble room for both detailed group writing and individual soloists.

Collector Note
Released in 2004 as ArtistShare catalog 0001, this was the first project from the artist-led platform. It became the first album to win a Grammy after being sold only online and was added to the National Recording Registry in 2019. Contemporary reporting described the original production as capped at 10,000 copies.
