Transcription

Early life

Born in Mason City, Iowa,[1] Jenney first played trumpet, then switched to trombone.[2][3] His father was a musician and music teacher.[4] Jenney performed in his father's band from age 11, but his professional work began with Austin Wylie in 1928.[4]

Career

During his career, Jenney worked with Isham Jones, Red Norvo, Artie Shaw, Mal Hallett, and Waring's Pennsylvanians. He appeared in the film Syncopation.[4] He has been called "the greatest trombonist of the Big Band era"[citation needed] and won the DownBeat Reader's Poll for trombone in 1940.[5]

He led his own band for a year in 1938 and 1939, but it was a financial failure. He was drafted into the United States Navy in 1943, but also played as a studio musician the following year.[2]

Death

He died on December 16, 1945, in Los Angeles, from complications following an appendectomy.[1][2][4]
