Additional Information
One of the most influential artists in Jazz, Louis Armstrong, remains one of the most recognized and iconic American musicians of the twentieth century. His legacy has touched nearly every genre of music since his career first started in New Orleans, Louisiana, in the early 1920s, where his skill as a cornet and trumpet player gained him local celebrity before he would go on to achieve international acclaim as a band leader and television personality. Armstrong became recognized for his signature gravely singing voice and quickly became one of the most popular performers of the twentieth century.
Throughout his career, Armstrong refrained from publicly discussing political views, and his music was some of the first to crossover into mainstream America. Armstrong began playing on Riverboats and other Brass Bands at an early age before moving to Chicago in 1922 to perform with King Oliver in Oliver's Creole Jazz Band in what was one of the most prosperous times for the city, where jobs were plentiful. Black Americans had formed communities that helped create spaces for these performers to entertain residents, leading to the creation of some of the most influential music of the twentieth century.
This iconic photograph captures the legacy and character of Satchmo at the peak of his career. It remains an enduring tribute to his ability to entertain and delight audiences across the globe. It immediately transports the viewer back in time, creating an indelible bond between the past and present and preserving Armstrong's history and influence.
