Carla Bley Band
"My mother was the kind of band-leader who wrote specifically for the players. She knew what they could do and how to get the best out of them. The music Carla wrote was very specific, but at the same time it contained a lot of freedom for the musicians to add their personality. She liked people who were unpolished and slightly dangerous."(Karen Mantler) Im Juli 1982 präsentierte die US-amerikanische Jazzmusikerin Carla Bley mit ihrer zehnköpfigen Band beim Jazzfestival in Wiesen ein funkiges Konzert mit Musik aus der Feder der Bandleaderin. Carla Bley, die ihre Band von der Orgel aus leitete, hatten ihren Partnern die Solisten-Rollen auf den musikalischen Leib geschneidert, das Publikum feierte die Musiker und ihre Bandleaderin enthusiastisch.
