Maria Grand: Jazz Musician in New York

About Maria Grand

Maria Grand is a jazz saxophonist and composer whose work often moves between song form and free improvisation. In New York City she appears at Bar Bayeux, including a trio setting with pianist Marta Sánchez and drummer Miguel Russell. Her writing favors clear structures that leave room for risk, and her improvising leans on direct tone and rhythmic flexibility rather than display. Online, her audience also traces to Brazilian-adjacent currents tagged as mpb and new mpb on streaming platforms.
