Tommy Dorsey, also known as Thomas Francis Dorsey Jr., was a prominent American jazz trombonist, composer, conductor, and bandleader during the big band era. His smooth-toned trombone playing earned him the nickname “Sentimental Gentleman of Swing.” Dorsey was highly respected for his technical skill on the trombone, which left a lasting impact on his fellow musicians.
