About The Composer's Workshop Ensemble

Group. Ambitious but short-lived group of improvisers who recorded on Musicians cooperative Strata-East. They made two albums in early '70s; works were designed for the sessions and were sprawling, intense pieces. Drummer Warren Smith was nominal leader for first release; he was also involved with the second, as were other stalwarts like Howard Johnson, Herb Bushler, Jack Jeffers and Bross Townsend. ~ Ron Wynn
