Armstrong defined what it was to play Jazz. His amazing technical abilities, the joy and spontaneity, and amazingly quick, inventive musical mind still dominate Jazz to this day. Only Charlie Parker comes close to having as much influence on the history of <a href='/topics/jazz' style='color:#3174a3'>Jazz</a> as <a href='/topics/louis-armstrong' style='color:#3174a3'>Louis Armstrong</a> did. Like almost all early Jazz musicians, Louis was from New Orleans. He was from a very poor family and was sent to reform school when he was twelve after firing a gun in the air on New Year's Eve. At the school he learned to play cornet. After being released at age fourteen, he worked selling papers, unloading boats, and selling coal from a cart. He didn't own an instrument at this time,<a data-href=/writing/document/F3X7B49KRZZS class="document__middle white-space--normal source-serif text-l" rel="nofollow" style="cursor:pointer;white-space: normal;"> <i>…show more content…</i> </a></p></span><span class="document__preview text-l source-serif "><p class='text-ellipsis-after'>In 1931 he returned to Chicago and assembled his own band for touring purposes. In June of that year he returned to New Orleans for the first time since he left in 1922 to join King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band. Armstrong was greeted as a hero, but racism marred his return when a White radio announcer refused to mention Armstrong on the air and a free concert that Louis was going to give to the cities' African-American population was cancelled at the last minute. Louis and Lil also separated in 1931. In 1932 he returned to California, before leaving for England where he was a great success. For the next three years Armstrong was almost always on the road. He crisscrossed the U.S. dozens of times and returned to Europe playing in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Holland and England. In 1935 he returned to the U.S. and hired Joe Glaser to be his manager. He had known Glaser when he was the manager of the Sunset Cafe in Chicago in the 1920s. Glaser was allegedly connected to the Al Capone mob, but proved to be a great manager and friend for Louis. Glaser remained Armstrong's manager until his death in 1969. <br /> Glaser took care of the business end of things, leaving Armstrong free to concentrate on his music. He also hired the Luis Russell Orchestra as Louis' backup band with Russell as the musical director. This was like going home for Armstrong, because Russell's Orchestra was made up of</p></span></div><div class="paper__gradient paper__gradient--bottom"></div><div class="center paper__cta"><a class="button text-m button--orange" id="ShowMoreButton" rel="nofollow" data-href="/writing/document/F3X7B49KRZZS">Get Access</a></div></div></div></div><div class="columns large-4 hide-for-medium-only hide-for-small-only"><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_sidebar"></div><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_sidebar_1"></div></div></div><div class="row essay-preview-block essay-related-block "><div class="columns large-12 padding-1 no-padding-large"><div class="columns large-12 paper--related-separator-new"><span class="paper--related-separator-word">Related</span></div><div class="rhino-slot center" id="essay_ad_related"></div><section class=""><ul id="RelatedDocumentCenter" class="unstyled"><li id="related-essay1"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/How-Did-Louis-Armstrong-Become-Successful-EE5E76955DC3A4E5" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">How Did Louis Armstrong Become Successful</h2></a><ul><li>960 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/How-Did-Louis-Armstrong-Become-Successful-EE5E76955DC3A4E5" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">How Did Louis Armstrong Become Successful</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Knocking the Beatles out of the number one spot on the Billboards in 1964, Louis Armstrong became of the most recognized Jazz musicians of his time. The famous performer wasn’t always living the high life as his childhood was quite grueling. Yet, he didn’t let it stop him from working his way up in the music business, and leaving a lasting impression on music. Louis Armstrong’s struggles in his childhood paved the way to his successful career of playing trumpet and singing to audiences worldwide, while leaving his mark on Jazz music’s style which still lives on today.</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>960 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/How-Did-Louis-Armstrong-Become-Successful-EE5E76955DC3A4E5">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay2"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-better-essays"><div><span>Better Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Comparing-Bix-Beiderbecke-And-Louis-Armstrong-FKDZEMTK6Z3W" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Comparing Bix Beiderbecke And Louis Armstrong</h2></a><ul><li>1567 Words</li><li>7 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Comparing-Bix-Beiderbecke-And-Louis-Armstrong-FKDZEMTK6Z3W" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Comparing Bix Beiderbecke And Louis Armstrong</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Aside from the typical cultural, social, and political factors influencing any musician’s style, an early life filled with poverty and hardship also shaped Louis Armstrong’s musical development. Some even theorize that it was Armstrong’s difficult upbringing that made his music so wise, so unique, and so revolutionary. Armstrong was an African American child growing up in the slums of New Orleans, close to abandonment, impoverished, and with too few constant people, resources, or homes. However, had his upbringing been different, his musical talents may never have been established to grow and thrive into one of the most internationally influential jazz musicians ever. When Louis Armstrong was placed in a boys’ home as a young boy, he was presented with the opportunity to play the cornet. He took up work in Joe (King) Oliver’s house, doing chores in exchange for musical lessons, developing into a</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>1567 Words</li><li>7 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-better-essays"><div><span>Better Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Comparing-Bix-Beiderbecke-And-Louis-Armstrong-FKDZEMTK6Z3W">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay3"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-better-essays"><div><span>Better Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-A-Influential-Artist-F3QFSCJENLMWW" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Louis Armstrong : A Influential Artist</h2></a><ul><li>2169 Words</li><li>9 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-A-Influential-Artist-F3QFSCJENLMWW" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Louis Armstrong : A Influential Artist</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">If one was to go out into the street, walked up to a random stranger and asked them if they knew who Louis Armstrong was, chances are that they would be able to answer you correctly. Louis Armstrong (Aug 4th, 1901 - Jul 6th, 1971) was an American trumpeter, composer, singer and occasional actor who became one of the most influential figures in jazz. His career spanned many decades, from the 1920s to his death in 1971, and many different eras in jazz. He first came to prominence in the 1920s as a trumpeter and cornet player with no technique as well as being very skilled in scat singing, Armstrong was a foundational influence in jazz, influencing many later jazz artists as well as shifting the focus of the music from collective improvisation to solo performance.With his very well-known and recognizable gravelly voice, a technique that was later named “crooning”, Armstrong was an incredibly influential singer, demonstrating great dexterity as an improviser by bending the lyrics and melody of a song for expressive purposes on demand. Renowned for his charming and incredibly charismatic stage presence and voice almost as much as for his trumpet and/or cornet playing, Armstrong 's influence extends far beyond jazz music, and by the end of his career in the early 1970s at his death, he was widely regarded as a deep and profound influence on popular music in general. Armstrong was one of the first very popular</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>2169 Words</li><li>9 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-better-essays"><div><span>Better Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-A-Influential-Artist-F3QFSCJENLMWW">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay4"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-good-essays"><div><span>Good Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-Accomplishments-53E715542E286D71" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Louis Armstrong Accomplishments</h2></a><ul><li>1127 Words</li><li>5 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-Accomplishments-53E715542E286D71" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Louis Armstrong Accomplishments</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Armstrong participated in the period of cultural achievement also known as the Harlem Renaissance where African American artists of all types explored and expressed their rich heritage. In the Spring of 1924, Armstrong received a more extensive introduction to the Harlem elite. “The recordings in this category are considered by many critics as Armstrong’s greatest including gems such as Weather Bird, West End Blues, and Don’t Jive Me, they were made in 1928 and Armstrong’s break with the New Orleans style (Collins)”. They were all made in 1928.

He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on August 4, 1901. Louis was the illegitimate son of William Armstrong and Mary Est “Mayann” Albert. He was abandoned by his father, a boiler stoker, shortly after his birth and was raised by his paternal grandmother. Then, at the age of five, he was returned to the care of his mother, who at the time worked as a laundress. Together with his mom, they moved to a better area of New Orleans. This is where Armstrong first fell in love with music; he would listen to people playing any chance that he would get(Tirro). He would attend parades, funerals, churches and go to cheap cabarets to be able to hear some of the greats play</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>3031 Words</li><li>13 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-better-essays"><div><span>Better Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-Research-Paper-FKTRSRJVJ">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay6"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-Concert-Analysis-FJAJAC6KBR6" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Louis Armstrong Concert Analysis</h2></a><ul><li>896 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-Concert-Analysis-FJAJAC6KBR6" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Louis Armstrong Concert Analysis</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Watching Louis Armstrong’s live performance in Berlin during the year 1965 was a pleasure, especially because I am a great fan of his music. Throughout the concert in Berlin, Armstrong and his chamber orchestra played 13 different pieces. With the exception of Jewel Woods’ entrance on vocals for two songs, the makeup of the chamber orchestra did not change throughout the concert. As a result, the cello, clarinet, drums, piano, trombone, and trumpet remained vital parts of each song throughout the concert.</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>896 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Louis-Armstrong-Concert-Analysis-FJAJAC6KBR6">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay7"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-good-essays"><div><span>Good Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/The-Life-of-Louis-Armstrong-PKJBSFFJTC" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">The Life of Louis Armstrong Essays</h2></a><ul><li>2727 Words</li><li>11 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/The-Life-of-Louis-Armstrong-PKJBSFFJTC" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">The Life of Louis Armstrong Essays</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Louis Blues", Clarence Williams, and the Red Onions Jazz Babies. By this time, Armstrong had gained enough individual attention to make his recording debut as a leader in 1925 when he returned to Chicago. He joined his wife's band at the Dreamland Café, and also played in Erskine Tate's Vendome Orchestra and then with Carrol Dickenson's Orchestra at the Sunset Café. That same year Armstrong recorded his first Hot Five records, which was the first time he made records under his own name. Any of the records that were made by Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven were considered to be Jazz classics. Their band continued recording until 1928, but never played live. This music set a standard and the agenda for jazz in the many years to follow. Armstrong's trumpet introduction to "West End Blues" is very famous. It has yet to be surpassed and remains as one of the greatest recorded moments of jazz. While Louis was working at the Sunset Café, he met Joe Glaser, who became his manager. Glaser was his manager until he died. Armstrong led his own band; they were called Louis Armstrong and his Stompers. Louis had become a big star by 1929.

(Cayton, 462) Armstrong was the king of jazz trumpet players. The new style that he created gave a voice-like quality to his horn. (Hakim, 58) Although Jazz was very popular itself, a majority of the fans and listeners were younger people. Flappers were commonly known during this time.

His rise to the top, though not overnight, occurred quickly, he played with mostly all the major bands in New Orleans over the next few years (Friedwald 350). In 1922, his mentor, King Oliver, invited him to work his Creole Jazz Band in Chicago. After recording with Oliver for over a year, Armstrong moved into what would become the most important early-jazz big band, Fletcher Henderson’s Orchestra (Shipton 201). As if it were not enough that Armstrong would rewire instrumental music for the rest of the century, his singing did the same for vocal music. He sang much as he played, but with a playfulness and a rasp, that would forever be part of American culture (Winfield 167). The first important trend in New York Jazz was Hot Jazz that was an incendiary style introduced by Louis Armstrong (Winfield 170). He was known for both his joyous ways with the trumpet and his peculiarly touching and funny vocal style. There was a cheerful impatience in his playing, an optimistic confidence that led him to risk going over the top (Shipton 157). Louis Armstrong is arguably the most important musician that the United States has ever produced (Shipton 160). Eldridge is the obvious link between Louis Armstrong and Dizzy Gillespie. Armstrong could make an audience cheer, but Roy Eldridge, made those top and bottom notes feel like a natural part of what the horn should do (Friedwald 21).

Duke Ellington was the African American performer to really persuade the owners of the club to allow other African Americans to perform alongside the normal performers. Louis Armstrong did a collaboration with this man, which shows his importance to his society during this time period. Alongside his new style of jazz music, the lyrics he used and the messages his songs conveyed were very influential and inspiring during the Harlem Renaissance. Armstrong made it a point to keep his political view to himself, and wrote songs of happiness and integration rather than sorrow.He is a New Orleans trumpet player who loves to entertain.
