Mike Mantler and Carla Bley, being the only two non-leader members of the Guild, had decided to organize an orchestra made up of musicians both inside and outside the Guild. This group, then known as the Jazz Composer's Guild Orchestra and consisting of eleven musicians, began rehearsals in the downtown loft of painter Mike Snow for its premiere performance at the Guild's Judson Hall series of concerts in December 1964. The orchestra, set up in a large circle in the center of the hall, played "Communications no.3" by Mike Mantler and "Roast" by Carla Bley. The concert was so successful musically that the leaders decided to continue to write for the group and to give performances at the Guild's new headquarters, a triangular studio on top of the Village Vanguard, called the Contemporary Center. In early March 1965 at the first of these concerts, which were presented in a workshop style, the group had been enlarged to fifteen musicians and the pieces played were "Radio" by Carla Bley and "Communications no.4" (subtitled "Day") by Mike Mantler.

  • New York Meets Vienna
    Magazin der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Wien März 2005 New York meets Vienna Dave Liebman: Zu Wien pflegt er zweifellos eine partikuläre Beziehung. Nicht nur weil er hier – beginnend mit „Lookout Farm“ 1974 im Jazzland – bereits häufig gastiert hat, nein: Wien beherbergt mit dem Porgy & Bess auch jenen Club, von dem er erst kürzlich, im letzten seiner dreimal jährlich verschickten E-Mail-Newsletter, erneut bekannte, dieser sei sein weltweiter Favorit unter den Jazzetablissements. Nun gastiert Dave Liebman mit mehreren Programmen im Magna Auditorium des Musikvereins. Der Mann, der solcherart eine besondere Wien-Affinität zum Ausdruck bringt, ist weit herumgekommen: Dave Liebmans Name hat Rang und Klang in der internationalen Jazz- Community. Als Saxophonist, Komponist und auch als Pädagoge hat er Spuren in der Geschichte hinterlassen, um noch in der Gegenwart Akzente zu setzen. Dave Liebman, das ist jener New Yorker Haudegen, der noch bei den Giganten des Jazz gelernt hat. John Coltrane war es, der den Jugendlichen für jene Musik begeisterte und ihm im persönlichen Kontakt Anregungen mit auf den Weg gab. Zum gemeinsamen Spiel reichte es freilich nicht: Denn als jene Lichtgestalt der sechziger Jahre, Konsensfigur für Avantgardisten und gemäßigte Modernisten, 1967 im Alter von nicht einmal 41 Jahren starb, war Liebman gerade 20 Jahre alt.
