Louis Armstrong playing with French trumpeter Maxime Saury

A picture taken in 1970 shows American Louis Armstrong (R), the jazz trumpeter whose melodic inventiveness established the central role of the improvising soloist in jazz, playing with French trumpeter Maxime Saury. Armstrong always said he was born 04 July 1900 in New Orleans although nobody knows the exact date. He was also a popular singer (hit recording include " Mack the Knife", " Hello Dolly!" ) and entertainer in such films as " Pennies from Heaven" (1936), " Cabin in the Sky" (1943), and " High Society" (1956), but he remained primarily a jazz musician, touring the world with his New Orleans-style sextet. Armstrong died 06 July 1971. / AFP PHOTO / STF

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Louis Armstrong in his element, playing alongside French trumpeter Maxime Saury. Taken in 1970, this image showcases the immense talent and melodic inventiveness of Armstrong, who revolutionized jazz with his improvisational skills as a soloist. Born on July 4th, 1900 (although the exact date remains a mystery), Armstrong hailed from New Orleans and always proudly claimed it as his birthplace. Beyond being an exceptional trumpet player, he also possessed a mesmerizing singing voice that earned him great popularity. Some of his hit recordings include "Mack the Knife" and "Hello Dolly!". Additionally, Armstrong showcased his charismatic personality through entertaining performances in films like "Pennies from Heaven" "Cabin in the Sky" and "High Society". Despite branching out into other avenues of entertainment, Louis Armstrong remained primarily dedicated to jazz music throughout his career. He embarked on numerous world tours with his New Orleans-style sextet, spreading the infectious joy of jazz to audiences across continents. Sadly, Louis Armstrong passed away on July 6th, 1971. However, this photograph serves as a timeless testament to his extraordinary musical legacy. With its horizontal composition capturing their shared passion for jazz music, this image immortalizes a moment where two talented musicians united their talents to create something truly magical.
