An interview with musician Louis Armstrong about his career, starting with his boyhood in New Orleans through becoming an internationally known figure. With Robert McCully and Adam Lynch.
Three young foreign students--one from Sweden, one from Venezuela, one from Belgium--talk to Louis Armstrong about what he has done as a musical ambassador. Mr. Armstrong tells them about experiences he had in their home countries when he performed there--about how how he met a Belgian diplomat who came to this country on a matter of state, but arrived early to spend some time with Satchmo, about a young Swedish girl who sang with his band and subsequently became a star, about a threatened bombing of an auditorium where he was scheduled to play in Venezuela which never took place, because when he arrived the people were more interested in music than in munitions. But more than anecdotes, he tells how he found people all over the world who were united, in spite of their differences, by their interest in music.
Mr. Armstrong is joined by Robert McCully, writer and public relations expert, Adam Lynch, news and classical music broadcaster, and Benny Benack, a musician who has concentrated on Dixieland jazz and a trumpeter who looks up to Louis Armstrong as his great hero. In this program Mr. Armstrong describes a New Orleans musical funeral and the impulses that give rise to it, the music it creates, and the way it is carried out. Speaking about emotion and music, he remarks that a good musical performance has as its base a great sympathy and feeling for the music. He talks about his love for any good music--jazz, classical or popular--and about the future of jazz and of young people who like music.
The final program of the series presents Mr. Armstrong, Benny Benack, a musician who has concentrated on Dixieland jazz, and Professor Frederick Dorian, a classical musicologist from the Carnegie Institute of Technology. Dr. Dorian was Mr. Benack's professor at Carnegie Tech, and has joined his former pupil to learn about jazz and what a great jazz musician thinks of classical music. Dr. Dorian, who is not very well acquainted with jazz, asks Mr. Armstrong what the elements are of good jazz, and it is this definition which occupies the major part of the program.
