Why should we Care - Our Legacy Louis Armstrong

Task 2 Louis Armstrong was a very passionate person with pride who was very successful even though he started little. His well-known characteristic features are intelligence, happiness and having a great sense of humor. Some of his little-known qualities are caring, peaceful & helping people.

Louis Armstrong was mainly influenced by people who played instruments making great music and meeting famous musicians when he was growing. His main talent was making his own style of music using his trumpet & humor. His experiences in the past when he was born, a very poor family must of have made Louis Armstrong commit and destined to become a successful man. Louis had to go through many obstacles including joining bands, becoming soloists for playing an instrument and try to be noticed.

If I were able to meet Louis Armstrong today and was able to ask him two important questions, I would ask him "Is life hard being dragged around by other people's advises?(Eg. Your wife)" & "If you had one wish, what would you wish for?" He would probably answer in the first question... "Yes, life is hard being dragged around by others but sometimes they may be correct. Sometimes, they may be wrong and you might regret." For the second question, it'll be an any answer of what he wants to wish for.

I chose this person because he inspired me by his songs that he wrote. His lyrics came through to me which is a amazing feeling knowing what he was trying to tell the world. His songs are very lively and I think he is a great musician. Bibliography www.guardian.co.uk www.last.fm
