Elizabeth Dickenson Saw her on TH-cam before leaving for Nola, thought I wouldn't get the chance...Easter Sunday, there she was, shredding it with her band...playing less standards and more obscure stuff because the locals were out. Incredible.
Doreen is the best in jazz feel and phrasing...do not confine her in the formal shows....her improvisation is second to none.....she has unique interpretation....soon Universities will feature her style.
@@QueenCaffeineAI that doesn’t mean underprivileged children shouldn’t have access to music lessons. There are kids who look like her out there who never realized they could be just like her because they never held an instrument before.
@@QueenCaffeineAI dude im so tired of ppl saying that its all talent and no skill like she spent all those years doing this shit and all she gets is that 'she was born with it' like cmon
yeah but I think she caught him out, she must've heard the snare was missing or something cos you see her turn around and glare, and the next moment the drummer has no phone
Some of the best talent to be heard never get heard. Thanks to you tube the world probably would have never heard her or heard of her. She is a professional and a naturally gifted, talented lady.
WOW... This young lady is no beginner thats for darn sure !...... what a talent and to share and out on the street like this..... BRAVO , BRAVO .. thats just so good !👍👍👍
She reminds me of cannonball adderley. With those fast, rhythmically complex, and joyous lines she’s pumping out. Seriously good stuff. Also the drummer was taking a phone call at the very beginning and keeping perfect time with incredible feel.
No one else notice at 0:08 the drummer is on his cell and not paying attention. He accidentally speeds up like 5 bpm. Doreen turns around at 0:13 and give him those 👀 “whatch u doin slow the F down”
@Kit & Caboodles I don't think it's circular breathing. Her cheeks don't puff out at all during the 28 seconds and normally if you circular breathe during a held-out note it significantly affects the sound. If she's circular breathing then idk how she can hold the sound that still. I think her lungs really are just that big
when i was in 7th grade the class clown sang this song but changed most of the words to "pizza" and it was to this day the funniest thing I have ever heard. The pizza goes marching pizza. Thanks Frank.
Woooooooooooooo!!!!!!! Just wow, I am a aspiring clarinet player and this is just mwah. Perfect pitches great singing voice you my friend have found the best clarinet player to ever have lived!
Quel souffle! Incroyable! Je vois que la vidéo informe que cela date d'autant moins 8 ans....j'espère que vous êtes toujours parmi nous, madame fantastique musicienne et votre groupe pour encore chatouiller nos oreilles....vous êtes fantastiques!😀👍👏🎶🎵
See, these folks are known as musicians in the trade. Y’know, people that can actually play their instruments and hone their craft honestly and authentically. No smoke and mirrors required! Amazing stuff.
The way the trombonist bring hat back to this world is both hilarious and a testament to the fact that she is literally OTHERWORLDY in her talent and presence.
I came hear only having heard a couple of short videos on youtube, once she started singing I lost it! She's amazingly talented! Real music by real musicians :D The best video youtube has ever recommended me!
0:07 Drummer on the mobile! 😅 Never saw you before Doreen, but loved your performance! 😘🥰 And the others were amazing as well, LOVEEEEED the walking bass!
She’s an insane singer too
eh, shes okay

i love how she turned around when the drummer was playing with one hand talking on the phone. she knew lol
Reminds me of that pastor trying to get his drummer to stop playing for a second 😂
Nah man he was just doing his job staying in the pocket 😂
She was giving a cue
Not so sure I'd ask him back........She deserves so much more respect than that.
The reaction of the Trombonist at 3:03 when Doreen sustains that note is priceless.
Exactly
He does that just to mess around with her. Harmless fun within the band
Can't tell but it feels like it's just a cute gag they do
It’s most definitely part of the show
@@JTD472 this doesn't make it not cute :)
That's some of the best circular breathing I've ever seen on a clarinet (or her lungs are incredibly big; you decide). Fantastic. :)
Either way, that breath control is immaculate
I'm convinced that 3/4's of her body mass is just her lungs.
It didn’t seem like she breathed through her nose at all, I think she just has an insane endurance and capacity.
She didnt use circular breathing. Not sure if this makes it even more impressive?!
@@hamster-j9d Then she has one heck of a set of lungs, Matt. :)
She should be rich and famous.
LadyChemicalEngineer ☆☆☆☆☆
She will be
Maybe. But but also you don't have to be rich and famous to be fulfilled and happy
She is famous.
And I think she is not broken as well rs
The trombonist getting up and being like 'yo, you gotta stop doing that' 🤣
Quite, and he shouldn't play trombone either.
@@hanseekhoff1093 it ws staged

@@hanseekhoff1093 That was a sick solo, what are you talking about
When he started playing wedding march i honestly lost it
She has to be one of the most skilled musicians in the world.
in history, ever
truly one of the greats
She’s great but not worldwide best great
I am seriously obsessed with this woman now. What an incredible talent! Thank you to the whole band for sharing your talent :)

Accidentally ran into Doreen less than 2 hours into my trip to New Orleans, felt like the luckiest man in the world.
This is great. The drummer was actually phoning in his performance
yeah but I think she caught him out, she must've heard the snare was missing or something cos you see her turn around and glare, and the next moment the drummer has no phone
You know that sound you were looking for? Well listen to THIS!
What does phoning mean?
@@tomwallis9889 he was on the phone talking
@@tomwallis9889 Phoning in a performance means you're not really trying, just doing the bare minimum.

@@JWu-jt7fz same
OMFG THATS SO FUNNY
Literally me when I improv lmao I will mix up any and everything 😂
I thought I was the only one😭
THE LUNGS!!!!!
As a pass woodwind player I can tell you, doing what she did at the end was insanely impressive!
Circular beathing, the note wasn't in one breath
@@Snavels Regardless, holding a note for 25 seconds is insane.
Wow. And I thought I knew how the clarinet should sound before I heard her play. That is talent.
I thought kelpy g was good. Thanks for this video
I started with clarinet back in highschool then moved to Sax, but this lady is the best clarinet player that I have ever heard. So inspiring.
....I loved Pete, still do, but he can't sing like Queen Doreen...;)) Oh yeh, she can play pretty good, too.
My band director did the same thing
Unfortunately jazz clarinet as a style is underappreciated and taught.
Haven't seen a youtube comment section this positive in my entire life *happy tears*
it's negative now LOL, somehow we got white supremacy at the top, and some dude talking about obesity at the bottom. Yup, that's 2021 for you
Don’t know why but her playing makes me so emotional.
It makes me homesick
Actually sitting here crying. Phenomenal, so glad to read I am not the only one.
No state in the country has the same feeling as Louisiana does.
The reason you get emotional is because she is breathing emotions into her music. There is a BIG difference in playing and "PLAYING".
I feel it too
"when the saints win the Superbowl again" aw yeah, my favorite tune!
Who dat, who dat, who dat!
I think that's the best clarinet playing I've ever heard in my life. She shows genius talent.
How the hell can people around there not be jumping all over the place and dancin’! I am and screaming in joy in my living room!
Some of the best talent to be heard never get heard. Thanks to you tube the world probably would have never heard her or heard of her. She is a professional and a naturally gifted, talented lady.
Apparently she’s well known in the orchestral world.
I completely agree
@@nessparadis6948 yeah, I saw a performance where she got the respect she well deserved
She's well known as the clarinet queen and has a net worth over $1M. She's not exactly undiscovered, just not heard by most.
I’m having an especially tough month. This helps a lot
You doing better now?
@@willreem5099 Absolutely! I had to temporarily drop out of uni, and now I'm back and I'm learning more than ever
@@vito3608 Hell yeah! I'm glad things worked out.

WOW... This young lady is no beginner thats for darn sure !...... what a talent and to share and out on the street like this..... BRAVO , BRAVO .. thats just so good !👍👍👍
Her voice sent chills down my spine.
Her talent and her voice is underrated
Why isn't this woman famous? I need this kinda pure soul in my playlist!
Her voice and this music gives me disney princess vibes.. She should be singing for Disney movies
Which princess will this fit?
Omg, wow
It is really beautiful
Yep!
I think her gift is best suited outside of corporate hacks
the guy on the trombone is hilarious and i havent even heard him say a word
Rip keith the wolf
This woman deserves to be in the books as one of the best not even kidding
I wish this awesome lady was around when I was playing clarinet in grade school. If I had seen her I would have stuck with it.
The best thing about her is her amazing command of the clarinet! Every single note she plays is magic!
My man was like "Girl stop it right now !" 😂😂😂 Man I love how my people cheer you up in their own way 😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
She reminds me of cannonball adderley. With those fast, rhythmically complex, and joyous lines she’s pumping out. Seriously good stuff. Also the drummer was taking a phone call at the very beginning and keeping perfect time with incredible feel.
I want to cross the world just to find her and give this woman a big round of applause
Why does it sound so well mastered like it was recorded in studio! Talented individuals.
I've heard her play twice and felt like the luckiest visitor to New Orleans both times! A true virtuoso and great combo!
I like how she turned to look behind her - the drummer was on his cell phone but quickly turned it off when she turned around. She didn't miss a beat.
Never heard a Clarinet sound like hers! She got a bad ass tone!!!!
Doreen’s vocals are as inventive and sweet as her clarinet. That high, high note that she holds so impossibly long…Jeez!!
No one else notice at 0:08 the drummer is on his cell and not paying attention. He accidentally speeds up like 5 bpm. Doreen turns around at 0:13 and give him those 👀 “whatch u doin slow the F down”
This is amazing! This woman needs more attention than TH-cam videos.
I make sure to catch her everytime I’m in NOLA, she never disappoints 👏🏼❤️
Hearing this for the first time really kinda started to make me tear up. So much beautiful soul in this video
The drummer is taking an important call...lol...
lol at the same time, it was impressive lol
Gets me every time. Love this piece especially when Doreen performs it. Also love the drummer carrying on while on the phone. Boss
all that moving and she can STILL hold that note. Damn, that's skill
2:50 High G for 28 seconds!
Jeaa.....thats amazing 😮
Not ok
Jealous
right after a wild phrase too!

Those who dedicate their lives to creating music are the greatest people in the world.
Never knew that Miss Ketchens also had the vocals on lock, besides being an extraordinary musician she is a spectacular vocalist too. Bravo 👏👏👏
That's the best damn clarinet player I've ever seen! And her voice is like an Angelic Mockingbird 😍 simply incredible!
She is so humble lol. I love her smile as much as I love her playing !
when i was in 7th grade the class clown sang this song but changed most of the words to "pizza" and it was to this day the funniest thing I have ever heard. The pizza goes marching pizza. Thanks Frank.
So glad to at last hear a clean (audio) version of one of her street performances; she's an absolute _marvel_ to listen to.
New Orleans has indeed landed on my bucket list.
“When the Saints go matching in” goes really well with “Here comes the Bride 👰 “. Lovely performance Ma’am!!! 💓💟💖
What?! I thought there's like a cd or minus one playing and it's her singing!!! And playing clarinet too? She's awesome
Woooooooooooooo!!!!!!! Just wow, I am a aspiring clarinet player and this is just mwah. Perfect pitches great singing voice you my friend have found the best clarinet player to ever have lived!
I love Louisiana with all my heart. Doreen & crew, keep on keeping on.
i love how the drummer speeks to the phone while playing XD
But do you love the look she gives him because he's rushing?
Amazing lady with the ability to make anyone who sees her walk away with a smile on their face & a spring in their step
First she awed my with the clarinet and now comes that incredible voice. An absolutely amazing talent
I can't believe people are not stopping to enjoy such an amazing performance !!

Good voice great clarinet playing and a great attitude to top it off. Can’t beat that!
Every time I hear her, I just smile like crazy. Her sounds make me so, so happy. Sheer utter beauty.
Absolutely brilliant. Her improvisation is so melodic and stylish.
She's an incredible musician and deserves all of the love she gets on TH-cam and from Queer Eye.
0:40 guys in background are the best...😂
This woman is amazing!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna have to go to New Orleans just to see her now!!!
How is no one talking about that long note at the end? I can't even hold my breath that long, much less hold a note on an instrument that long!!
She deserves all the love of us :)
DId we all miss the drummer on the phone keeping the beat ? Amazing
Incredible gig!! She is amazing as is her band! Love how the drummer is on the phone playing with one hand! LOVE THIS!!!!

I’m taken aback with the whole performance, fantastic!
This video made me cry, I miss seeing and hearing them on my walk home from work everyday. Her and her daughter is incredibly talented
What happened to them?
The “Things Ain’t What They Used to Be” quote at 2:35 is so fire
I came hear only having heard a couple of short videos on youtube, once she started singing I lost it! She's amazingly talented! Real music by real musicians :D The best video youtube has ever recommended me!

severe flooding and gators baby!
I felt that music is beautiful for the first time.
I’ll never get over how talented she is 👍🏽🔥
Hat's off to the guitar player
Thanks to Jacob for bring these hidden gems back into the spotlight.
Absolutely amazing and that high note with the trombonists reaction was hilarious 😂
3 minutes 24 seconds of complete happiness! Thanks very much Madame.
I first heard her in the movie Temptation, that's when I decided to find her on TH-cam. Oh what a great lady. God bless her.
She's got that Sidney Bechet new Orleans vibrato going on. sounds like authentic New Orleans jazz to me. Keep up the great work!
I’m a saxophonist… I’d love to have even a drop of the talent that Doreen has
my favorite musician 🎉 ❤ you so much doreen
