Edward Ory. American jazz trombonist and band leader, acclaimed as the greatest trombone player in the early years of Jazz. Born 25 December 1886 in LaPlace, Louisiana; died 23 January 1973 in Honolulu, Hawaii. From 1912 to 1919 Ory led one of the most popular bands in New Orleans which featured many of the great musicians who would go on to define the Hot Jazz style. At various times King Oliver, a young Louis Armstrong, Johnny Dodds, Sidney Bechet & Jimmie Noone all played in Orys' band. Relocating to California for health reasons in 1919, he assembled a new group of New Orleans musicians on the West Coast and played regularly under the name of Kid Ory's Creole Orchestra.
