		Horace was a much better pianist and became a skillful arranger early on, but he actually accomplished a lot less during his life than Fletcher and was largely forgotten after the swing era ended.
		Horace Henderson was in the Army for parts of 1942-1943, rejoined Fletcher for a period, and then worked as an accompanist for Lena Horne.
		However, Horace Henderson, who led recording sessions with his brother's sidemen in 1933 and his own big band in 1940 (plus obscure small-group dates in 1945 and 1951, and a 1954 broadcast with his orchestra released by IAJRC decades later), was more valuable as a contributor of arrangements to other bands.

	Fletcher Henderson - Biography - AOL Music
		Fletcher Henderson was very important to early jazz as leader of the first great jazz big band, as an arranger and composer in the 1930s, and as a masterful talent scout.
		Fletcher Henderson had a degree in chemistry and mathematics, but when he came to New York in 1920 with hopes of becoming a chemist, the only job he could find (due to the racism of the times) was as a song demonstrator with the Pace-Handy music company.
		By then, Henderson's band (after a period at the Club Alabam) was playing regularly at the Roseland Ballroom but, due to the bandleader being a very indifferent businessman, the all-star outfit recorded relatively little during its peak (1927-1930).

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 1999.10.06
		Henderson advises 'you should read this piece with annoyance' (71), and by documenting the poet's obsessive accountancy, pretends to argue that it is Catullus who deserves our annoyance.
		Henderson acknowledges the now-popular belief that Horace is mocking his flaccid self here, but he wishes to emphasize the unpleasantness of the poem rather than disarm it by reference to authorial intention.
		Much as Henderson does with sources in his generally laconic endnotes, I have appropriated and translated this work into a language that makes sense to me. At the same time, I am sure that I will occasionally be compelled to return to the source, especially when thinking about satire.

	BBC - Radio 3 Jazz Profiles - Fletcher Henderson
		Henderson grew up as a classical pianist, and qualified as a scientist, before moving to New York and becoming first a popular song demonstrator, and then an accompanist on dozens of blues records.
		Henderson was not a natural blues player - he knew more about Haydn and Mozart - but he taught himself the craft, and went on from directing and arranging bands in the recording studio to leading his own group at the Roseland Ballroom.
		Although Henderson could be vague in person (accentuated by the effects of a car accident) his writing was tight and polished, and the best discs by his band are a perfect match of slick precision in performance with well-crafted arrangements.

		xv, 24) whether Horace was among the proscribed.[[1]] One's first reaction to the suggestion is one of scepticism: Horace was not a member of the aristocracy and, in spite of the education his father gave him, not among the wealthiest.
		Henderson may be criticized for sometimes isolating persons and events from their contexts, and so skewing their full significance.
		It is the achievement of Henderson to have pierced the ancient rhetoric and much superficial modern scholarship and to have enabled us to realise some of the issues involved in Roman civil war and the cost of its suppression.

	HORACE SILVER / RE-ENTRY
		Always a force to be reckoned with, Silver's mid-60s band was consistently adventurous, original, and funky, anchored in the steady rhythms of bassist Larry Ridley and drummer Roger Humphries, and steeped in the passion of Joe Henderson's tenor sax.
		In many ways, these recordings are defined by Henderson's inspired playing, as Joe gets many chances to step out, drenching each track with his unique and masterful sound.
		Henderson and Silver both stretch exuberantly on the band's signature hit, "Song For My Father," which actually surpasses the studio version in sheer excitement.

		There is no doubt that Fletcher Henderson deserves his position as a significant mover in jazz's development; however, the reason for his eminence has been largely misunderstood.
		One of them was Fletcher Henderson, and when Pace went out on his own in 1921, the soft-spoken and reserved young Georgian became a major player in the new company, called Black Swan, named after the legendary singer Elizabeth Taylor Greenfield (1809-1876).
		There are few stories in jazz more full of hills and valleys than that of Fletcher Henderson, and in a field with its share of pretenders to historical significance, it's quite moving to reflect on the still largely misperceived contributions of this true pioneer.
