Armstrong and Ellington refer to two iconic figures in jazz music: Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington. Armstrong was a pioneering trumpeter and vocalist known for his innovative improvisation and charismatic stage presence, helping to popularize jazz as a soloist's art form. In contrast, Duke Ellington was a celebrated composer, bandleader, and pianist, renowned for his sophisticated arrangements and orchestral compositions that transformed jazz into a more structured and complex genre.
