Biography
Honoré Dutrey was a jazz musician who played trombone. Honoré Dutrey was born on 19 February 1894 in New Orleans and died on 21 July 1935 in Chicago. The music is usually filed under jazz.
Honoré Dutrey (c. 1894 in New Orleans, Louisiana – July 21, 1935 in Chicago, Illinois) was a Dixieland jazz trombonist, probably best known for his work in King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band. In New Orleans, Dutrey played with the Excelsior Brass Band and with John Robichaux's orchestra. His playing has been contrasted with that of other New Orleans trombonists such as Kid Ory, in that he met the older harmonic and rhythmic functions. Recording with King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band, Dutrey displays his clean tailgate style. Rather than crowding the polyphonic improvisation of the other musicians, his transparent playing offers the important element of stable harmonic counterpoint. He suffered from asthma most of his life after a ship accident damaged his lungs while he was in the Navy in 1917. To combat his asthma on the band stand, he would inhale a nasal spray prescribed to him by a doctor.
