What type of trumpet did Louis Armstrong use?

Q: Like was it a Bb or something else?

A: If you go to the SELMER PARIS website it will say.

He played on a K-MODIFIED TRUMPET "Louis Armstrong model"

This was a make by the Selmer Paris corporation in Paris France.
They make more of the better woodwinds around(saxophones, clarinets). They also produce BACH trumpets.

Hope this helped :)

Diane Bish, a virtuoso of the organ, in concert at the Stella Maris Church last Sunday.

Michael Reckord, Gleaner Writer

An excellent performance by organist Diane Bish at the Stella Maris Church on Sunday could only have cemented her reputation as "the most visible and influential classical organist performing today".

But the enthusiastic applause she received from the fair-sized audience was evoked by more than her music. The audience was also responding to her informative and humorous patter as Bish showed herself to be not only an organist, but also an entertainer.
