BENNY GOODMAN
Small black and white publicity photograph of Benny Goodman holding his clarinet wearing a bow tie and suit.
Photograph signed: "Benny Goodman". B/w, 5x7¼ overall, image 4¼x6¼ (one surface). Name imprinted at lower margin. After playing with bands in the 1920s and early 1930s, Benny Goodman (1909-1986) organized his own orchestra in 1934. In 1935, he formed the Benny Goodman Trio with Gene Krupa and Teddy Wilson; it became a quartet in 1936 when Lionel Hampton joined. Goodman, who became known as "The King of Swing", was the first major white bandleader to integrate Black and white musicians. Performing on radio and in motion pictures in addition to recording, his orchestra became nationally famous. Composers such as Béla Bartók, Aaron Copland, Leonard Bernstein and Morton Gould wrote music for Goodman. Slightly soiled at blank margins. Ink note (unknown hand) on verso (no show through). Fine condition.
