More than a major figure of the 20th century, Louis Armstrong is an incandescent jazz icon, an architect and pioneering founder of jazz music for half a century. One of the greatest trumpeters, Louis lived in Montmartre for a few years before the war, and he felt quite at home. Paris was a city he adored, and the city loved him back. This exceptional concert shows “Pops” at the summit; radiating good humour, he has the audience eating out of his hand. Patrick FReMEAUX
