About Playlist
Pianist and organist Carla Bley, who died in October 2023 at the age of 87, was a totally free and atypical figure on the jazz scene. As a composer, performer, arranger and bandleader, Bley drew on all sources, from the history of jazz to classical music and popular music such as rock. Born Lovella May Borg before becoming Carla Bley (she was married to pianist Paul Bley in the late ’50s), she was a composer of all possibilities—piano or organ, acoustic or electric, solo or with a full orchestra. In 1973 Bley wrote the legendary jazz-rock opera Escalator Over the Hill, featuring singer Linda Ronstadt and Cream bassist Jack Bruce. And within this sea of influences and collaborations, her partnership—on stage and off—with bassist Steve Swallow occupies a special place. Photo © Roger Ressmeyer/Corbis/VCG via Getty Images
