Louis Armstrong at 92nd Street Y Jazz in July Festival at 92nd Street Y

About

Louis Armstrong was the most important jazz musician of all time.

From his early masterpieces (“Potato Head Blues,” “West End Blues”) to later hits like “What a Wonderful World,” he revolutionized American music. Catch three of today’s trumpet giants — Warren Vaché, Jon Faddis and Brian Lynch — as they pay sizzling tribute to the singular Satchmo, with a classic New Orleans rhythm section in full force behind them. The perfect coda to Jazz in July 2017.
