Carla Bley (born Lovella May Borg, May 11, 1938 in Oakland, California, died October 17, 2023 in Willow, New York) was a composer, keyboardist, and bandleader. She moved to New York at age 17 and met pianist Paul Bley, whom she married in 1957, changing her name to Carla Bley. She began composing, and in the early 60s her pieces started appearing on albums by George Russell, Jimmy Giuffre, and Paul Bley. Keeping the name Bley after divorcing Paul, she co-founded the Jazz Composers' Orchestra with Michael Mantler. Her "jazz opera" Escalator over the Hill came out in 1971, and her renown as a composer lasted through the successive decades.
