this is more interesting in generational transfer of talent than as a jazz lesson.
these estimable folks have evidently had their venues canceled. i have seen the lad, viggo, also on drums and it's unclear how many instruments he plays. his voice is strong for his age and that stuff wasn't studio quality. what with the rest of the vaudeville troupe song and dance, drums and brass playing should become his repertoire.
you can't put a cork in the dixieland bottle and this lot must be going stir crazy.

To the tune of Stormy Weather:

"Don't know why, ain't no gigs been coming by,
malnutrition, tryin' to make it as a jazz musician........."

What's that joke? Little kid: "Mom, when I grow up I wanna be a jazz musician"...Mom: "Well son, you're going to have to decide...you can't do both"...
