you'll meet legendary trumpeter Louis Armstrong, who shaped a new
form of jazz called improvisation; pianist and bandleader Duke
Ellington, who helped create the big band sound of the swing era;
and the singer Billie Holiday, whose songs such as "God Bless the
Child," "Don't Explain," and "Lady Sings the Blues" have become
jazz standards.Listen along to the sounds of jazz by downloading
music and hearing instruments such as trumpets, clarinets,
trombones, and even singers scatting as they improvise melodies.
With a pull-out poster showing the different instruments of jazz, A
Child's Introduction to Jazz hits the perfect beat and will have
you bebopping and scatting in no time!
