Adolf Rosner (26 May, 1910 – 8 August, 1976), known professionally as Ady Rosner and Eddie Rosner, was a German, Polish and Soviet jazz trumpeter, bandleader, and composer. Known as the White Louis Armstrong, he was one of the most outstanding jazz trumpeters of his generation. Rosner played a central role in the development of jazz in Poland during the 1930s, promoting it as a modern art form rather than merely dance music. During World War II, he led one of the most successful jazz orchestras in the Soviet Union with official state approval. Despite his wartime prominence, Rosner was arrested in the late 1940s and spent several years in the Gulag. After his release, he resumed performing and recording but never regained his former international standing.
