Benny Goodman developed an interest in classical muisc and recoded the Mozart Clarinet Concerto and Clarinet Quintet. He also commissioned Bela Bartok to write "Contrasts", for clarinet, violin and piano which he premièred with the composer and the violinist Joseph Szigeti. However, this question doesn't really make sense. It is important to read over things after you have written to check that they express clearly what you mean. Names of people and places, etc. should begin with a capital letter.
Goodman led a full swing band as well as many small groups. While his orchestra did not invent swing, many historians credit him with bringing the style to a nationwide audience and launching the Big Band era (1935-45).
His small groups played more traditional jazz, though often with a swing flavor. The Benny Goodman Quartet consisting of Goodman, Teddy Wilson, Gene Krupa, and Lionel Hampton, is by far the most famous. He also led a trio, quintet, and in his later years, a sextet.
In addition to his fame as a jazz musician Goodman was well-respected in the classical world. His performances of Mozart's clarinet works are considered to be among the finest ever recorded. In fact, his jazz theme "Let's Dance" is taken from Carl Maria von Weber's "Invitation to the Dance".
