Biographical History

Edmund Thornton Jenkins, born in Charleston, South Carolina, was a composer and musician.

He began his musical career during his childhood with the Jenkins Orphanage Band, which was organized and led by his father, the Reverend Daniel Jenkins to raise money for the orphanage he had established in Charleston in 1871. The band was composed of boys in the orphanage. They performed jazz and ragtime in numerous cities in the United States and England, and were the largest single source of revenue for the orphanage.

Jenkins received his musical training from the musical directors of the Jenkins Orphanage Band, at Morehouse College and at London's Royal Academy of Music (1914-21). He remained in Europe following the completion of his studies at the Academy, performing with dance bands, making jazz recordings and eventually leading the Ermitage Orchestra.
