Louis Armstrong was born into a very poor family and received early musical instruction at the Waif’s Home for Boys. He soon began to play his cornet at parties, dances, funeral marches and local honky-tonks. This earned him a reputation as a fine blues player. In the early 1920s he moved to Chic...
