Norfolk-born jazz trumpeter Peanuts Holland wowed Europe in the mid-20th century. He'll finally be honored in his hometown.

Jazz trumpeter Peanuts Holland, born in Norfolk in 1910, was instrumental in elevating his bands as a whole, rather than seeking the limelight for himself, said Peter Schulman of Old Dominion University. An event Monday night will transform ODU's Gordon Galleries into a Parisian jazz club to honor Holland.
