This album received wide acclaim, voted"jazz album of the year"by the Jazz Journalists Association, DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE, and received a GRAMMY Award, the first GRAMMY in history awarded to an album with Internet-only sales.  It started the crowd-funding craze.  Along with Schneider's album 'Evanescence' it was voted in the top 25 all-time best big band recordings by critics for DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE."The best album of 2004, by a wide margin, was Maria Schneider's Concert in the Garden (ArtistShare). Critics need to be careful not to mistake taste for trend, so I'm not sure how much to make of it that both this and Wayne Shorter's Algria, my favorite from 2003, are Spanish-tinged. But this is unmistakably a step ahead for Schneider, whose voicings are as pellucid as any by her mentor Gil Evans, and whose touch, like Ellington's, is evident even in her sidemen's improvised solos."- Francis Davis, Village VoiceTrack Listing:1.
