Louis Armstrong (1901-1971)
Possibly the most monumental trumpet player of all time, Louis Armstrong was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was best known for his signature improvisation and scat singing. His impressive stage presence and unique voice paired well with his stellar trumpet play. Armstrong was one of the first Black Americans to gain wide popularity with white audiences. At a time when it seemed impossible for a Black man, he was able to enter the upper class and enjoy a luxurious lifestyle.
