Секстет оркестра США является частью кооператива камерного ансамбля около сорока музыкантов, которые были собраны Джоном Льюисом, музыкальным руководителем Джаз-Модерн Квартет, осенью 1961 года, с целью формирования первого постоянного оркестра, способного играть любую музыку от ранней классики до современной (в том числе и джаз как джаз).
