FLETCHER HENDERSON,
THE PIONEER.

affairs, 1t looked for awhile as If an
interview were going to be impossible,
but he was finally able to SIT down
without being disturbed. Fletcher
Henderson talks well and has quality
of putting people at their ease. He
is easy to talk to because of the
straightforward manner in which he
answers questions and in which he
makes all his statements. There is a
certain quiet, business like air about
him, which seems almost oat of place
in a theatrical dressingroom.
During the, ten years he has been
in orchestra work, he has had such
now.famous band leaders as Don Rcd
man and Lewis Armstrong playing for
him. Those ten years have taught
him the importance of forming the
nucleus of good band from steady,
competent men. 1t was Fletcher Hen
derson who was the first colored or
chestra leader to feature five piece
brass-section, and it was Fletcher
Henderson who at one time had an
all-star band composed of the best
colored orchestra talent available.
Like most orchestra leaders who
have played at one place for a long
time, he doesn't particularly care for
making theatrical appearances. The
work is too limiting, too combining.
He. complained that theatrical work
did not give him chance to play
the music he wanted to.
Look over there" He indicated
a collection of leather music folios in
one corner of his dressing room.
THAT music is worth lot of money!
They are classical collections which
never have time to play. Naturally,
we have to be continually thinking of
playing the music, which pleases our
audiences. We have time to play only
about four pieces, and so there doesn't
seem to be any place for some of the
music would really like to feature"
noticed as he waved hand to-
wards the music that his hands were
the hands of pianist, well-shaped,
with long fingers: I had also noticed
that there was certain quality of
aloofness, intermingled with friend
Illness, that were combined in rather
puzzling manner. He has the nick
name of Smack" which was pinned
on him back in his school days, but
somehow it didn't seem that the nick
name fitted in. Nevertheless all of
his friends and all of the men in his
orchestra call him Smack
Fletcher Henderson is married, and
lives in New York City, right across
the street from Harry Wills. :. Incl
dentally, he told me that his wife is
a marvellous trumpet player! 1 wish
that l had room for all of the per
sonal fsidelights which Paul Turner
added, but l have not, and will have
to conclude by merely saying that
Fletcher Henderson, in my opinion,
is not only the pioneer" orchestra
leader, but that he is also, the "ari-
stocrat" of jazz music.
