Visionary composer/bandleader Maria Schneider knows firsthand that deep listening is the key to understanding. “Every time I hear my band play, I witness the magic of listening,” she explains. “A true jazz improvisor thrives on listening....

Schneider’s new EP American Crow is out February 3, 2026, via ArtistShare®, along with a visual narrative exploring listening, connection and courage in a divisive age.
