Thornhill, Claude
Claude Thornhill led one of the most cutting-edge dance bands of the 1940s. Born in 1908, Thornhill's talents as a pianist were garnering him attention while he was still a child. He formed his first orchestra in 1939, which immediately stood out due to its use of French horns and tuba in addition to the more standard brass section of trumpets and trombones. In addition to his own arrangements, Thornhill gave early exposure to such musical futurists as Gil Evans and Gerry Mulligan. The sound of the Thornhill band had a noticeable and well-documented effect on the sound of Miles Davis' classic "Birth of the Cool" sessions; notable Thornhill associates involved with these sessions included Evans, Mulligan, Johnny Carisi and Lee Konitz.
