USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -Louis Armstrong was the first person to bring jazz out of New Orleans and spread it all over the world. His unique technique show different characteristics on a trumpet. For example, in 1922 Louis started to put his style into jazz whenever he joined King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band.

Detailed explanation-2: -New Orleans jazz began to spread to other cities as the city’s musicians joined riverboat bands and vaudeville, minstrel, and other show tours. Jelly Roll Morton, an innovative piano stylist and composer, began his odyssey outside of New Orleans as early as 1907.

Detailed explanation-3: -Armstrong, perhaps more than any other musician, codified the rhythmic technique of swing in jazz and broadened the jazz solo vocabulary. The Original Dixieland Jass Band made the music’s first recordings early in 1917, and their “Livery Stable Blues” became the earliest released jazz record.

Detailed explanation-4: -Armstrong created a loose, free, informal, virile and swinging vocal style that influenced Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and every great jazz and pop singer that came after him. Even Bing Crosby, who was also developing a new vocal style in the late 1920s, found inspiration in Armstrong’s singing.
