Copy+Pasted excerpts direct from wikipedia: Henry Fillmore (3 December 1881 – 7 December 1956) was an American musician, composer, publisher, and bandleader, best-known for his many marches and screamers. In his youth, he mastered piano, guitar, violin, and flute, as well as the slide trombone, which at first he played in secret, as his conservative religious father believed it an uncouth and sinful instrument. Fillmore entered the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music in 1901.
