For half a century, Louis Armstrong shared his gift of music with the world. Fondly known as Satchmo or Pops, he grew up in a poor family in New Orleans, but played trumpet and sang his way into the hearts of music lovers of all ages with his musical virtuosity and charismatic showmanship. This piece is a tribute to one of the greatest jazz masters, Louis Armstrong, who continues to give us joy with his hit recordings such as What a Wonderful World, Hello Dollie, Mack The Knife, St. Louis Blues, and dozens more.
