Jimmy Dorsey , byname of James Francis Dorsey, (born Feb. 29, 1904, Shenandoah, Pa., U.S.— died June 12, 1957, New York, N.Y.), was an American musician who both independently and with his brother Tommy led one of the most popular big bands of the swing era. He was also a highly talented saxophone and clarinet player. Along with his brother, Dorsey received his first musical training from his father, who was a music teacher and marching band director. He played both clarinet and alto saxophone and began playing in several bands with Tommy when they were both teenagers. In 1920 they formed their own combo, Dorsey’s Novelty Six. By 1922 the group, now known as Dorsey’s Wild Canaries, was well-known in the Baltimore, Md., area and was among the first jazz bands to broadcast on the radio. Du
