In this clip from the new episode of The Tonearm Podcast, Maria Schneider describes how her longtime orchestra members approach each note with a shared sense of what the music is supposed to feel like—illustrating the point with the moment when saxophonist Donny McCaslin goes somewhere unexpected, and pianist Gary Versace follows him harmonically into outer space.

Realised last night that I'd never listened to #JohnColtrane 's Love Supreme all the way through. I had just watched #Drumeo and their excellent dive into the drums on the album.
I've corrected that now and yes, it's everything people said it was. https://open.qobuz.com/album/0060253742084
Definitely up there with Miles' Kind of Blue for me.
