Beiderbecke, Bix (Leon Bismarck) 1903-1931.
US jazz cornetist, composer, and pianist. A
romantic soloist with King Oliver, Louis
Armstrong, and Paul Whiteman's orchestras,
Beiderbecke was the first acknowledged white
jazz innovator. He was inspired by the
classical composers Debussy, Ravel, and
Stravinsky.
