can't query from dbpedia with a sparql

I want to query from dbpedia using their sparql interface (http://dbpedia.org/sparql)

I want to get the abstract of 

http://dbpedia.org/page/Herbie_Mann

I know that I have to call abstract ontology 

http://dbpedia.org/ontology/abstract

and my final sparsql query is like following :

SELECT ?abstract
WHERE {
{ <http://dbpedia.org/page/Herbie_Mann> <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/abstract> ?abstract}
}

but yet I'm not able to see anything.

please help me as I am beginner in semantic web!

Try this query instead, where the URI for Herbie Mann includes /resource instead of /page:

SELECT ?abstract
WHERE { 
  <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Herbie_Mann> <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/abstract>?abstract
}

Don't use <.../page/Herbie_Mann> but <.../resource/Herbie_Mann>. The first URI is just the URL of the HTML page that describes the artist. You are interested in the properties of the artist himself. The second URI is the URI that identifies the artist.
