Louis Armstrong was born on 4th  July in New Orleans, Louisiana. He grew up without a father and he and his sister were raised by his grandmother. When he was 11, Louis dropped out of school. He formed a quartet with three other boys, and they sang in the streets to earn money.

He also used to get into trouble. He was put into prison and sent to live in a home for troubled boys. He talked the band director into letting him join the band, and that’s where he learned to play the cornet (短号), an instrument very much like the trumpet (喇叭).

Louis Armstrong became one of the greatest jazz cornet players that ever lived. He was also an accomplished composer and singer. His nickname was originally “Satchel-mouth”, because some people said his mouth was like a satchel (挎包) where he could hold so much air to blow the trumpet. But one day someone called him “Satchmo” instead of “Satchel mouth”. Louis liked it, and the name stuck. Louis became famous for playing the cornet in clubs and on riverboats.

He was best known for his ability to improvise, which means to make up music as he plays it. He also sang “scat”, which was a style of music in which the singer sings meaningless words instead of real lyrics. Over his career, Louis played in many recordings, and appeared in television shows and movies.
