Adrian Rollini

Adrian Rollini was a pioneering jazz multi-instrumentalist best known for his mastery of the bass saxophone. Born in 1903, Rollini was a key figure in early jazz, contributing to the vibrant swing and dance band scenes of the 1920s and 1930s. He played with some of the biggest names of the era, including Bix Beiderbecke and the California Ramblers, bringing a deep, rhythmic drive to their recordings. Beyond the bass sax, he was also skilled on instruments like the goofus and vibraphone, adding unique textures to jazz arrangements. Rollini’s inventive playing helped shape the sound of early jazz, making him a significant—if sometimes overlooked—figure in the genre's evolution.
