EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in a moment of musical magic is Art Hickman's Orchestra as they tour New York City during their whirlwind performances in 1919-1920. This photograph, courtesy of the Library of Congress' Bain News Service collection, showcases the talented musicians who brought joy to audiences with their lively jazz melodies.
At the helm is bandleader Arthur George Hickman himself, seated at drums or piano as he conducts his ensemble. The photo highlights a range of instruments including violin (Steve Douglas), trumpet (Walt Roesner), trombone (Fred Kaufmann), saxophones and clarinet played by Bert Ralton, Clyde Doerr, and others.
The orchestra's eclectic mix of musicians includes string bassist Bela Spiller, plectrum banjo player Ben Black, tenor banjo virtuoso Vic King, pianist Frank Ellis, and oboe/clarinet multi-instrumentalist Clyde Doerr. This snapshot captures the energy and camaraderie that defined Art Hickman's Orchestra during their heyday in the Roaring Twenties.
