Jazz composer Maria Schneider, known for her work with David Bowie, is a vocal critic of music streaming platforms and advocates for fair compensation for artists. She exclusively releases her music through the crowdfunding platform ArtistShare, refusing to make it available on streaming services. Schneider's music is a reflection of her rural Minnesota upbringing and her collaboration with Bowie led to a rediscovery of a grittier sound in her compositions. She continues to fight against the devaluation of music in the digital age and urges musicians to resist giving away their work for free.
