HANDY'S MUSIC
co. in LARGER
BUSINESS SPOT

The largest and most successful
musical firm among colored Ameri-
cans and one OF the largest In the
country. is the Handy Brothers Mu-
sic Company, 1887 Broadway, New
York City.
The founder and manager OF the
establishment is w. c. Handy. the
famous musician and composer who
originated the popular type OF mu-
sic known az the blues" He be-
came famous almost overnight. by
his composition. THE Memphis
Blues"
In commenting on this subject,
Doron X. Antrim says:
Handy and his orchestra were
playing this popular number as
early as 1909. Mr.. Handy was
ashamed OF this original music
with It's dialect. however. and
strove 10 compensate by making It
as musical as possible. The result
was like dock hand dressed up
in cutaway. When Handy sensed
the appeal this music had upon the
public. he took off the fixings. got
down 10 earth and wrote the "St.
Louis Blues" TO date there have
been more arrangements and re-
cordings OF this number than any
other one on the list OF the ten top
tunes of the last fifty years.
The post war slump we are also
told by Mr.. Antrim. almost ruined
Handy. The closing out Of 500
Woodwork music counters. left him
with half million unsold copies on
his hands. but he labored harder
than ever. He has made good and
recently removed his publishing
plant 10 larger quarters.
