- Bennie Moten ( 1894 –1935) jazz pianist and band leader , he led the Kansas City Orchestra, the most important of the itinerant, blues-based orchestras active in the Midwest in the 1920s, and helped to develop the style that would come to define many of the 1930s Big Bands.

The band also featured the gifted young pianist Count Basie , who formed his own band from Moten's dispersed members after he died , and took New York by storm in 1936. -


Bennie Moten (seated, right) shows a new arrangement to the young Count Basie at the Pearl Theater, Philadelphia, in c. 1931.
