2 Tansas Gazette - North East Louisiana
. 2 Tansas Gazette - North East Louisiana ======= Map of North Eastern Louisiana Waterproof, La is in the Southern portion of Tansas Parish, La. It is 199 miles from New Orleans. During the era of the cotton plantations the population of the parish was 90% slaves. There were many dances in the parish's leading cities - Waterproof, Newellton and St. Joseph. There were few concerts given and few organized brass or string bands. Jazz music was first mentioned in the newspaper in 1921. 1881 May 7 - The Ball, Wednesday Night In response to an invitation sent us, we attended the ball given by the Tensas "rifles, at Masonic Hall, on the evening of the 4th. As we predicted last week, everyone who attended had an ice time, and to say that it was a success but faintly expressed it. The band - Kaisers, from Natchez - came on the Rebstock, about 6:30 and about 9 p.m. the ladies and their escorts began to arrive, and despite the warmth of the evening, number of them were soon whirling in the dizzy mazes of the waltz. "From that time until the hour appointed for supper, the dancers held the floor, and "chased the giddy hours with flying fee" to the music of quadrille, heel and toe, the waltz and the Lancers. The assemblage was the largest, we learn, of any that has attended a ball here during the season. 1882 November 4 - Brass Band We learn that the Waterproof Brass Band has organized a series of open-air concerts, in the form of night serenades to their friends in the several neighborhoods in the vicinity of the town. -

Edward “Kid” Ory
Edward “Kid” Ory Mr. Edward “Kid” Ory was born in Woodland Plantation near La Place, Louisiana on December 25, 1886. As a child he started playing music on his own homemade instruments. He played the banjo during his youth but his love was playing the trombone. However, the banjo helped him develop “tailgate” a particular style of playing the trombone. By the time he was a teenager, Ory was the leader of a well-regarded band in southeast Louisiana. In his early twenty’s, he moved to New Orleans with his band where he became one of the most talented trombonists of early jazz from 1912 to 1919. In 1919, Ory relocated to Los Angeles, California for health reasons. He assembled a new group of New Orleans musicians on the West Coast and played regularly under the name of Kid Ory’s Creole Orchestra. There, he recorded the 1920s classics “Shine,” “Tiger Rag,” “Muskrat Ramble,” and “Maryland, My Maryland.” In 1922, he became the first African American jazz bank from New Orleans to record a studio album. In 1925, Ory moved to Chicago and took interest in working on radio broadcasts and recording with names such musicians as Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, Johnny Dodds, and many others. During the Great Depression, Ory left music but returned in 1943 to lead one of the top New Orleans style bands of the period until 1961. It was about 1966 when Ory retired and spent his last years in Hawaii. He did, however, play occasionally for special events. One of his last performances was in 1971 when he surprised everyone by coming back to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. -

Most of these materials were transferred from the Copyright Division to the Music Division in 1973 and 1974, at which time they were interfiled with those deposits already catalogued and the entire series was microfilmed.
