beginning his musical career as a clarinettist with the Ringling Brotehrs Circus
Band, he took up the saxophonist in 1903. In 1904 he took part in the first American
performance of the Sinfonia Domestica by Richard Strauss at Carnegie Hall.
He was a featured soloist with Kryl’s and Conways bands and recorded several of
his own compositions and arrangements for the Victor and Edison record companies,
which included a rare recording of the altissimo register in 1911. He was featured soloist
with the Sousa Band in 1919 and 1920. After refusing to perform during a musicians‘
strike in January 1920, he was fired with almost all of the musicians and never played
with the Sousa band again.
Henton moved to Philadelphia, PA and continued to perform and teach. In 1924, the
Henton-Knecht Conservatory (founded with fellow Sousa Band member Al Knecht)
had over 200 saxophone students. H. Benne Henton died in 1938. Nadine, first published in 1919, was one of Henton's featured solos with the Sousa band.
