A pioneer in the emerging swing style of jazz; his charts featured a call-and-response that would pit the reeds against the brass, which became a model for most of the swing bands that followed; "Wrappin' It Up" was one of his band's notable pieces

He was an American pianist, bandleader, arranger and composer. Most important in the development of big band jazz and swing music.

He helped bridge the gap between the Dixieland and the swing eras. He was often known as Smack Henderson (because ne could make a smacking with his lips as part of the arrangement).
