Harry James
Harry James made the trumpet a brilliant lead voice in the big-band world. The USA bandleader and trumpeter moved through jazz, swing, popular song, and Hollywood entertainment, with a sound built on speed, polish, and high-register confidence. His orchestra became part of the 1930s and 1940s dance-band era, and early recordings with singers such as Frank Sinatra connect him to the wider American songbook.
