Already once planned for 2022, the tail end of the Covid pandemic thwarted the wanderlust of Maria Schneider. But postponed is not cancelled: now, the American composer and bandleader presents her ninth album »Data Lords«, which was just awarded two Grammys. Maria Schneider stands for jazz compositions in cinemascope format, for profound, superbly arranged works with the Oslo Jazz Ensemble alongside her this time, for its part a powerhouse of Norwegian jazz creativity.
»Data Lords«, this is something like the catapult handmade by David with which Maria Schneider as a resistant, seemingly powerless warrior flings a couple of shiny prepared cannonballs of sound against the Goliath of the tech and music industry. In the USA, the composer is a powerful voice for copyright protection and for the fair payment of musicians in times of streaming services. The music of her ninth album also carries this fighting spirit within it, which she released, as ever, entirely on her own.
