A Tribute to Louis, is a solo for trumpet with accompaniment by concert band. Of course with a nod to the world famous trumpeter Louis Armstrong (born 1901, died 1971). Armstrong was a legendary trumpeter and singer, who was born in New Orleans. In his life, which consisted purely of music, he lived mostly in Chicago and New York. He had an incredible influence on the jazz scene in the US and eventually worldwide. His nicknames were 'Satchmo' or 'Satch', short for 'Satchelmouth'. He was also known as 'Dippermouth,' like 'Satchmo' a reference to his big mouth. He was usually addressed as 'Pops' by friends and colleagues. His most famous hits include 'What a Wonderful World', 'Hello Dolly' and 'It Takes Two to Tango'. Rob Balfoort honors this fantastic musician in this fun piece in 2 styles; 'slow' and in an 'up tempo' in the tradition of New Orleans Jazz.
