00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 4: we're honoring a musical hero who not only played beautiful music,

16
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 4: but also stood up for what's right and fair. Ready

17
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 4: to find out who it is? Let's start this musical journey.

18
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: Who is this mysterious musician? It's Louis Strong.

19
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 4: You have great taste in music, Elliott. Louis Armstrong was

20
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 4: a legendary singer and trumpet player.

21
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: Oh what kind of music did he play? Was he

22
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: rock star?

23
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 4: No?

24
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: Not really? Or did he sing opera? No?

25
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 4: Actually? Louis Armstrong played a type of music called jazz.

26
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: I've heard of jazz.

27
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 5: It's groovy and cool, ooh jazzy.

28
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 4: Yes, jazz uses very unique melodies, tricky musical chords, and

29
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 4: fun rhythms. It's usually full of emotion and feeling.

30
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: That's why I love Louis Armstrong. His voice is so

31
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: full of feelings.

32
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 4: Yes, his voice and trumpet playing were very powerful, not

33
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 4: only because he was a great musician, but also because

34
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 4: his music inspired a lot of people. How Well, during

35
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 4: his time, Louis Armstrong and other black or African Americans

36
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 4: were often treated badly and unfairly just because of their

37
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 4: skin color. Armstrong faced many challenges along the way, but

38
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 4: he used his songs to bring people together, and he

39
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 4: spoke out against unfairness and inspired others to do the same.

40
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: That's very brave. Yeah, he's a hero. Now you see

41
00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: why I wanna seem like him. Shut out? But what

42
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: are you singing? Elliot? It sounds like jibberish.

43
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 4: Well it's not exactly gibberish, but they aren't words either.

44
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 4: It's a popular technique in jazz called scatting.

45
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 1: Scatting that sounds fun. How do you do skating? It's

46
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: very easy. I can teach you if you want. Yeah,

47
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: that would be fun.

48
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 4: Lingo kids listeners, do you want to learn how to

49
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 4: scat with Elliot?

50
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: Yeah?

51
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 4: Great, all right, Elliott, teach us how to do it.

52
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, first let's start with some simple warm ups.

53
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: Try singing la la la with me, just to warm

54
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: up our voices. Ready, here we go. Whoa la la

55
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: la la la, Woa la la la la. That's great.

56
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: Now we can try adding so silly sounds to it.

57
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 1: You want silly sounds to a sat in jazz.

58
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 4: A lot of times you make the sounds up as

59
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 4: you go. It's kind of like making up your own language.

60
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 5: But what kind of sounds, well, you can just do

61
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 5: or be or shoe or bob or pretty much any

62
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 5: sound that you can think of, the trick is to

63
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 5: mix them up in different.

64
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: Ways like this. Yes, that's great.

65
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,920
