Louis Armstrong

The Musician of the Month for November is
 
Louis Armstrong
 
 
Louis Armstrong is a Jazz singer and Trumpet player from New Orleans, Louisiana.  He was born in 1900 and died in 1971. 
 
He is said to have invented "Scat Singing" while recording a song and his music fell off his music stand.  He didn't know the words, so he just made some up!

Here is the video we watched in class of Louis and his band playing and singing Dinah!
