Jazz Standard Presents Data Lords: Maria Schneider and Donny McCaslin in Conversation
TUNE IN:
Tuesday, November 10th at 7:30pm ET
Jazz Standard Facebook Page
NJPAC and Jazz Standard present an online evening with Maria Schneider, the multiple GRAMMY® Award winning jazz composer and bandleader. Part of the TD Jazz series: https://bit.ly/2IF550L. She’ll discuss and share tracks from her 2020 double-LP release Data Lords, a “powerful new album” that “protests big tech’s invasion of our lives” (The Guardian). Maria will be joined in lively conversation by jazz saxophonist Donny McCaslin, who has been a mainstay in Maria’s orchestra and who, armed with his saxophone, defined the visionary fusion of David Bowie’s final studio recording, Blackstar.
“[Data Lords is] the most daring work of Schneider’s career, which sets the bar imposingly high. This is music of extravagant mastery, and it comes imbued with a spirit of risk…”

“I’ve never had more fun writing music. I threw caution to the wind on this album and it felt really good.”
