Maria Schneider Orchestra, Cadogan Hall

Make way for Maria Schneider: London gets a visit from the greatest jazz composer of her generation.

Maria Schneider is the most talented jazz composer of her generation. Working with her dedicated orchestra, she consistently explores the further reaches of sound, while never loosing track of accessibility.
This year, as a highlight of the EFG London Jazz Festival, she will bring her ensemble to Cadogan Hall. The British pianist Liam Noble, whose new album Room Somewhere re-conceives pieces by figures as varied as Joe Zawinul, Gilliam Welch and Edward Elgar, will provide support.
Originally from Minnesota, Schneider studied with Gil Evans and Bob Brookmeyer before founding her orchestra in Greenwich Village. Since then, she has successively expanded and refined her sound. Two of her albums, Concert in the Garden (2004) and Winter Morning Walks (2013), won Grammys, and the just-released The Thompson Fields looks to do the same trick.
Schneider’s work often breaks the confines of the genre, drawing on the multi-faceted layering of classical music while never forgetting her bandleader predecessors. She often works on a gigantic canvas, creating evocations of nature and the American countryside. The results are richly expressive, and often have a sensuous at odds with the more metallic palette of many of her contemporaries.

    What the critics say 

    GUARDIAN 

    “From the lustrous opening chords of a Maria Schneider concert, you can feel you are swept off your feet and falling through space - but with the certainty that someone with a lot of emotional intelligence is there to catch you.”

    John Fordham

    JAZZ TIMES 

    “Maria Schneider’s imagination is as expansive as the wide vistas of the American prairie where she grew up.”

    George Kanzler

    Practical 

    VENUE

    Cadogan Hall is a real gem of West London's live music scene. A 900-capacity hall designed in Byzantine style by Robert Chisholm, one of colonial India's most famous British architects, the building was originally a Church of New Christian Science, before falling into disuse. It reopened in 2004, and is now the residence of Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
