Timeline

1986

Following the death of Jimmy Lyons in 1986, Ward joined Cecil Taylor's group, touring and recording three albums. In the late 1980s, he also released Lito, his first album as a leader, featuring trumpeter Woody Shaw. During the 1990s, he recorded with pianist Don Pullen and was a member of The Ed Blackwell Project. He led his own quartet in 1987, and, in the 1990s, recorded three additional albums under his own name.

1966

Following the Seattle performances, at the advice of Coltrane, Ward took a bus to New York. While there, Ward joined Coltrane's group during a week-long engagement in November at the Village Gate. In a review of one of the November concerts, A. B. Spellman wrote: "This was the first time I'd heard Panamanian altoist Ward. He seemed to be neither a screamer nor a singer, but a talker. He seemed to be engaged in some kind of a dialog with himself, playing a rapid series of terse, self-contained, but related phrases. I liked Ward; his ear is different. I couldn't sort out his influences in this cauldron, however, and I look forward to hearing him in a smaller group." On February 19, 1966, Ward performed with Coltrane's group at Philharmonic Hall, Lincoln Center, as part of another expanded group which also featured Albert and Donald Ayler.

1965

In September 1965, while Coltrane was playing at the Penthouse in Seattle with his expanded group, Ward was allowed to sit in. He later recalled: "He let me come on stage, and immediately he could decipher what I was trying to do, by making motions with his hand how my ideas were going. He was going up and down, to the sides, and this is how we started. I would come and sit in with him a couple of nights... I would go to the hotel and meet with Pharoah [Sanders] and Raphael [Garrett], and they were talking about vegetarianism." Ward can be heard as part of this group on the Coltrane album A Love Supreme: Live in Seattle, released in 2021. In addition, the track "Afro Blue" recorded in Seattle on September 30 of that year, and released on Live in Seattle, features an alto saxophone solo by an unidentified player. It has been speculated that this may have been Ward.

1960

During the early 1960s, he joined the military, and studied at the Navy School of Music. While stationed in Germany, he met and played with Albert Mangelsdorff and Karl Berger, with whom he would record several albums. He also met Eric Dolphy, who encouraged him in his musical endeavours. In 1965, shortly before returning to the United States, he met and spent time with Don Cherry, who was playing with Abdullah Ibrahim (Dollar Brand).

1953

Ward was raised in Panama City, and at a young age was exposed to a wide range of music, including Dixieland, classical, and Panamanian calypso. In 1953, he and his family moved to Seattle, Washington, where he began studying the clarinet. While in high school, he also picked up the alto saxophone, and began playing in rock and roll bands. During this time, he began listening to the music of Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, and Ornette Coleman.

1940

Carlos Ward (born May 1, 1940 in Ancón, Panama) is a funk and jazz alto saxophonist and flautist. He is best known as a member of the Funk and disco band BT Express as well as a jazz sideman.
