Handy: St. Louis Blues / Bernstein · Armstrong · Lewisohn Stadium Symphony Orchestra 

What an incredible performance. So lucky it was filmed for posterity.

Alfredo Antonini arrangiatore era il signore con il cappello? chi è questo signore che si diverte ascoltando il brano?

The beaming man in the hat that the footage keeps cutting to is none other than W.C. Handy himself, FYI!

Legends Louis Armstrong Leonard Bernstein W. C Handy😊

The man with the white hat is W.C. Handy himself, who is 85 here. He died at 87.

Fabulous. I love that the writer of the piece is watching and was so moved!

This is incredible footage!

Gracias !!! Es un privilegio poder ver esta joya ...

I attended several classical music concerts at Lewisohn Stadium in my early teens. I remember the sprawling cement venue as if in a vanished dream. I entered CCNY when I was 25 and never realized it had been the home of that fabled stadium.

I had no clue that they performed together and I am so glad that I came across this. Absolutely wonderful.

Louis Armstrong - incomparable!

it dosent get any better than this!.

Louis Armstrong, the greatest jazz player influenced every player

To make the author's heart melt is the dream of every performer. Satchmo certainly achieved that.

I hope everyone noticed the composer, W.C.Handy, in the audience!

This blurry clip is too historically important to not be given a full restoration and wide release!

This is the One for sure.🙊👁️✝️🙏🤓👍👌❤️

OMG 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 finally I found you

This is it UKWIM TOP SECRET

That's DALE JONES on bass, not Arvell Shaw. Thank you for sharing.

Louis Armstrong--God came down and played jazz trumpet. Edmond Hall--not far behind as a soloist.

... quelle joie de voir et d'entendre ceci.

This was a concert featuring first the Dave Brubeck Quartet and then the Armstrong All Stars. CBS was filming a documentary (Satchmo the Great) and for that purpose there was an "Added Attraction" of Bernstein and the Stadium Symphony playing just this, cameras at the ready. The hardest worker was Alfredo Antonini, who wrote this arrangement.

forever

Incredible and unbelievably beautiful/great; made me feel young again!!!!

Congratulations to the St. Louis Blues, 2019 Stanley Cup Champions and named after this tune.

En años de turbulencia mundial... Personas que le hacían bien al mundo.

GREAT!

amazing

The 24 bar solo Pops has is one of his best. The way this man was able personalize and add expressions to get each note to sound the way he pleased is a element of his composition skills not many talk about. It’s not just the notes he played, it’s how he played them. This solo, short and sweet, is a perfect example of how to build a solo to a climax.Satchmo was a master of this.

❤️😍❤️

Amazing!!!!!

😃💙🏵️🍀

amazing！

Is this footage filmed in the years before Bernstein is comfortable with a baton?

Who's that man at 3:45?
