As critic Max Harrison notes in the liners, the trombonist was able to inspire even lesser-known colleagues to produce tight ensemble work and strong solos. Ory favored a well-disciplined sound rather than a freewheeling Dixie style, but he let loose on the improvisations.

(born Edouard Ory, 25 December 1886 - 23 January 1973)

Come by the @nolajazzmuseum to see the brand spanking new Highlights of Early Jazz in New Orleans display. We got #kingoliver mouthpiece that he did Canal Street Blues and Dippermouth Blues with. #johnnystcyr banjo that’s on Jelly Roll Morton’s Red Hot Pepper’s late ‘20s recordings. #kidory mute #siidneybechet soprano. These are the instruments played on the foundational recordings of jazz! And I can hear Bob French cussing me out because I got it all wrong. https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvhxZ4l5n_/?igshid=3k408etc7qp3

I recently had a brief conversation about the history of Jazz with a local writer. I’m by no means an expert on the subject of Jazz or Jazz History, but I love history, and specifically New Orleans history. I suddenly found myself thinking I was missing a bigger part of the picture, and maybe I had no idea what I was talking about 😂 😆 He encouraged me to look into Kid Ory, and so I did just that, and he also suggested that I buy his book on Kid Ory, 😂 and so I bought it! I have really enjoyed reading it and I was inspired to begin reading more online about the subject of Creole’s, the German Coast and of course Jazz and Kid Ory. Ory was one of the great Jazz Pioneers and many considered him to be the best trombonist of the early Jazz era. He was an all around self taught musician, even making his own string instruments out of cigar boxes, buckets and fishing line. The kind of thing you do when you have little money and you have a true passion and calling for music. He grew up here on this plantation, the woodland plantation, but not to be confused with the well known b&b in Port Sulfur with the same name. This house is currently being restored and it looks like they are doing it right. Projects like this rare piece of history, should be tackled with a conscience. I am really looking forward to watching this renovation unfold on instagram. You can follow them too! ❤️ @raised_creole #savingplaces #vintagehome #vintagestyle #kidory #vintagenola #laplacehistory #louisianahistory #louisianahistorichomes #jazzhistory #jazz #creolehistory https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq454yTBhD9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ldqezind8a3l
