Maria Schneider’s unique voice quickly emerged when she started the Maria Schneider Jazz Orchestra in 1992. Her first album Evanescence, issued that same year, gave notice that an important new composer had arrived and her instrument was the orchestra.

The Thompson Fields is an album by the Maria Schneider Orchestra that won the Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album in 2017.^[5] Schneider was the composer, conductor, and co-producer of the autobiographical work. The title comes from the Minnesota farm where she was raised.^[6][7]

The Thompson Fields comes with over fifty pages of liner notes containing photographs, drawings, and Schneider's thoughts about nature.^[8]

Critical reception[edit]

In Stereo Review magazine, music critic Fred Kaplan called the album a masterpiece and ranked Schneider with big band composers Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn, and Gil Evans, adding that she worked as an assistant to Evans and Bob Brookmeyer early in her career.^[8] Critic Kevin Whitehead of NPR praised the album, though he said the album's grandeur could get 'too purple'.^[6] At All About Jazz, Dan Bilawsky called the album 'awe-inspiring'. He said that the quotation from Theodore Roosevelt on the liner notes fits much of Schneider's music: 'There is nothing more practical in the end than the preservation of beauty, than the preservation of anything that appeals to the higher emotions in mankind.'^[9] In The New York Times, Nate Chinen wrote that she is borrowing methods used by Duke Ellington and Wynton Marsalis but that she has her own way of 'using timbre and harmony to bring a tactile presence to the dimensions of sound.' Chinen added that her orchestra planned to perform this pastoral composition at the Birdland club in New York City.^[10] Doug Ramsey at Arts Journal called The Thompson Fields a suite because of 'its unity of style and its mood of reflection.'^[7]

In the UK, Ivan Hewett of The Daily Telegraph comments on the importance of the liner notes, the bird paintings by Audubon, and how the music mimics the Minnesota landscape's 'quality of being both huge and intimate.'^[11] At The Guardian, John Fordham commented that, although The Thompson Fields is reflective, it also swings.^[12]

Half of my time was spent deciding which slides I wanted – it is too slow, I don’t want to waste my time scanning un-wanted pictures. It would scan a couple of slides, then nothing. Collection drivers.

The Thompson Fields won best jazz album of the year in the Readers' Poll at Down Beat magazine.^[13]
