Maria Schneider (born 27 November 1960) is an American composer and big-bandleader.

ALLEGRESSE was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album.

Similar in nature to the lush, orchestral jazz work of J.J. Johnson and Gil Evans, Schneider here conducts a large group in a suite of detailed and neo-classical pieces. By turns sentimental ("Nocturne") and carefree ("Hang Gliding"), it is a largely satisfying effort.
