Even 40 years after his death, Louis Armstrong remains one of the most popular jazz trumpeters and singers of all time. In Louis Armstrong Medley, Naohiro Iwai has beautifully arranged Armstrong’s unmistakable version of the Russian folk song, Dark Eyes (1954). This is then followed by two of his greatest hits: the jazz standard, Georgia on My Mind (1930), which features a tenor saxophone solo, and When You’re Smiling (1929).

Veertig jaar na zijn dood is Louis Armstrong nog steeds de bekendste jazztrompettist en -zanger ooit. Voor deze medley gebruikte Naohiro Iwai Dark Eyes, een van oorsprong Russisch volksliedje waaraan Armstrong in 1954 zijngeheel eigen touchgaf. Daarna volgen twee van zijn grootste hits uit jongere jaren: de jazzstandaard Georgia on My Mind uit 1930, die hier een solo voor de tenorsaxofoon bevat, en When You’re Smiling uit 1929.

Louis Armstrong ist auch 40 Jahre nach seinem Tod einer der bekanntesten Jazztrompeter und -sänger. Naohiro Iwai verwendete in seinem Medley Dark Eyes , ein ursprünglich russisches Volkslied, das Armstrong sich 1954 mit einer unverwechselbaren Version zu eigen machte. Danach folgen mit dem Jazzstandard Georgia on My Mind von 1930, der hier ein Tenorsaxophonsolo enthält, und When You’re Smiling von 1929 zwei seiner größten Hits aus jüngeren Jahren.

Décédé il y a plus de 40 ans, Louis Armstrong est resté le trompettiste et jazz man le plus connu au monde. Naohiro Iwai a associé dans son medley plusieurs grands succès de ce musicien hors pair. La chanson Ochi Chernye (Les Yeux noirs) appartient au patrimoine commun des folklores russe, juif et tzigane. En 1954, cette valse devient un standard de jazz gr ce Louis Armstrong. Laissez-vous ensuite porter par la célèbre chanson Georgia on My Mind , où l’on pourra entendre un chaleureux solo de saxophone ténor. When You’re Smiling vient clore cet époustouflant medley.
