  • Description

    Satchmo's wonderful world - "C'est Si Bon!"
    Louis Armstrong was an immeasurable gift for the millions of listeners, fans and musicians who felt themselves born along the decades by the irresistible force of his trumpet playing and singing.
    From the revolutionary power and audacity of the '20s to the awe-inspiring essentiality of the last recordings from the very end of the '60s, his musical traverse is crisscrossed and underpinned by a generosity and expressiveness unmatched throughout the history of Jazz.
    Naturally, the "Satchmo" of the '50s is no longer he of the Hot Five, the Hot Seven, the fabulous orchestra of the early '30s or even the -flights of "Swing That Music" with Jimmy Dorsey's 1936 orchestra. But what moves us beyond words in the voyage of Louis and his "All Stars" is his perpetual quest to reunite with his roots as a kid from New Orleans - the galvanizing and formative sounds that he searches for in every corner of improvisation as if it were only now in these powerful memories that he finds himself completely.
