Background notes

Archive material and source history

Eddy Duchin led a popular orchestra in the 1930s and 1940s that played a polished, elegant style of swing. His piano work was known for its shimmering quality, and his arrangements often featured soaring strings. Songs like 'Ol' Man Mose' and 'I Cover The Waterfront' were among his recordings that got regular radio play.

He formed his own orchestra in 1931 after playing in local bands as a teenager. The group became a fixture in ballrooms and on national radio broadcasts. Duchin's marriage to Marjorie Oelrichs in 1939 was noted at the time due to her social standing.

A health issue forced him to retire from performing in 1950. His orchestra had included musicians like trumpeter Bunny Berigan.
