About

An unmissable opportunity to experience one of the landmark artists in modern jazz history. Inspired by the work of Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, and Erik Satie, pianist/composer Carla Bley first made her mark in the 1960’s, penning tunes that were recorded by Gary Burton, Jimmy Giuffre, and Charlie Haden. Her seminal 1971 triple album jazz-rock opera Escalator Over the Hill, featuring artists ranging from Linda Ronstadt and Jack Bruce to Gato Barbieri and John McLaughlin, cemented her reputation for stylistic diversity and restless creativity.
