Thank you for mentioning Shirley Clarke already. Three of her features that can be considered avant-garde at least in part: THE CONNECTION, THE COOL WORLD and ORNETTE: MADE IN AMERICA all feature jazz scores.
Consider her work on the Loop films she did for the 1958 Brussels World Fair, where they refused to allow her to use jazz scores. Since she wasn't allowed, she *cut* them as if they were jazz pieces.
