- This video is about Doc Severinsen's final concert from Saratoga Springs New York August 27th 2022. The concert took place at a church that was converted to a concert hall called the Universal Preservation Hall. Doc was 95 years old at the time of the concert and his tone still sounded beautiful.
I am 68 years old and have played the trumpet since I was 10. Doc was my main inspiration and influence that has given me a lifetime of enjoyment. I doubt I will make to 95, let alone and play like the Doctor! Doc we love You man! Thank you for all that you have done for the world of music and trumpet playing!
I agree . I followed him since i was a kid also
Would you know what trumpet he might be playing....i could be wrong but it looks like a smaller bell.... could it be similar to what was once called a peashooter that helped hit or sustain high notes?

Should have been front page news...the man made millions happier! Thanks, Doc and video taker!!!
Thank you for watching and liking the video
How does this man look, act, and sound 25 years younger than he really is. Unbelievable. The people I have seen still going strong in their 90's had/have one thing in common, they never actual retired from the thing they love doing most.
Yes, that makes a lot of sense
It takes a lot of air to blow that horn. That's the secret to mental acuity, oxygen supply to the brain.
@@kenttalsma7906 He is also committed to fitness routines apart from
'self-improvement' on the trumpet, a term he used some time ago in place of
the usual one, 'practice.' Playing the trumpet - any brass instrument - is a physical
workout when you commit to it.
The tonight Show with Johnny couldn't have been the same without Doc fronting that orchestra those were amazing times that will never come back never such beautiful years I was glued to that TV come 11:30pm I'm 70 years young now but it was fun and thrilling, RIP Carson, Doc have many years more!
Amazing life! He sounds fantastic!
Still has that great sound
This makes me happy and sad at the same time. Thanks so much for posting this. I love this man…
He’s 95 years old, still looks great and plays like he’s 35! Wow!
I love it also.
saw doc in 1978 , tonight show . good man .
What a delightful surprise for this to show up in my feed. Hard to believe Doc is 95. What a Legend. One of the best. Thanks a lot for posting this video.
Glad you saw and liked this video. Thanks for letting me know.
God Bless Doc, thats when late night was late night!! The tonight show with Carson was the best entertainment ever on the television!! This gentleman added to the entertainment experience, there will never be a show with such talent in one show again. Starting in Jr High, would set my alarm for 11:30 to watch the tonight show then go back to sleep, it was my favorite show.
I am happy you liked the video. I agree with everything you said. They were also showing highlights of the Johny Carson show but I could not put them in the video because I thought they might take the video down. I wanted to be sure people saw this. Thanks you.
That's so funny - setting your alarm in Jr.HS. Funnny! Cool kid, lol
Still as sharp as ever...and always witty!!
Yes he was very witty
A legend.
Wonderful!👏👏👏👏👏
Yes I agree
Thank you for sharing this overview of a remarkable event!
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed iy
INNNNNNNNNNN CREDIBLE !! ❤️❤️❤️
95, my foot. Dude walks around, talks and acts like he's not a day over 75.
Thank you Mr. Severinsen for all of your years of entertainment. You are a class act. Happy retirement sir.
LEGEND
He is amazing. I knew that growing up listening to him.
Me to
Thx for posting this...he's still got chops at 95...sound and video aren't synced but just listen...he still has a great tone...he'll still be practicing every day...
Beautiful tone for sure
I thought he was 97..
@@rosemarygaeta8205 The only reason I know he is 95 is because they had a birthday Cake for him and they announced his age.
@@ralphdavella554 your right..for some reason i tjought he was older.
Give or take a decade - at that age, a quibble about 2 yrs🤭
I watch / listen to Doc on The Tonight Show recordings on TH-cam. He has entertained and brought wonderful music to so many people for so many decades. What an American treasure. The ending image in this video needs to be available for purchase. It would inspire me to keep practicing.
That is so true.
It inspires me for sure
Very cool! Thanks for sharing this. Doc is one of a kind.
You are wellcome
It's amazing that someone can even live to be 95 - even more amazing to see someone that age playing the trumpet that well. He's the greatest ever.
A truly remarkable career!!
God bless, Doc!!
All time great
I was there as well. God bless Doc!
It was a great night. Glad you were there.
I think if i can play like that at 94 l'll be a happy man. I have always been a fan and listened to what he has to say about music and of course trumpet playing. There was a radio show that had his version of round Midnight as theme tune. I heard that every day almost for 30 yrs.
I know. Great stuff. We can listen to him forever.
God bless, Doc. I interviewed him on my podcast nearly five years ago. What a sweet man. I hope he lives forever.
Thanks. How do I hear that podcast
Awesome! How many years old then. 95 now and still Awesome ! 2024. Still qick and handsome, the music speaks for itself. Love you Doc!
Doc continues to inspire! I can hope to be able to still play IF I make it to 95+. If I do, it will be largely from being inspired by Doc!
Me to. I agree
He's getting around and playing better cats half his age!
Yes. It's great
I watched Johnny Carson when I could during my teens. Always hoping to hear Doc's solo in Tonight Show Theme.
That tune brings a lot of joy
I was there with you at that show. He was awesome! What a pleasure watching the legend I grew up with. He was so kind to all of us after the show as well. I flew in from ABQ New Mexico and was up for 36 hours just to see him. It was worth it!
That's a great story. Thanks for letting me know that. To bad we didn't talk.
Absolutely phenomenal you know why he’s alive still from expanding those lungs he’s getting oxygen to all his vital organs that’s why he’s so young for 97 years of age I guess he was 95 when this concert was done phenomenal
Thanks for posting this!
Your welcome
What a class act!!!
To play that pure at age 95? Amazing!
Maybe Ralph D or any older trumpet players might know.....i payed cornet but just a beginner.
The bell on his trumpet looks small in diameter to me - could be wrong.
There used to be old vintage trumpets called peashooters that were thought to help play or sustain notes in high range. I would think he is playing a state of the art modern made trumpet , but does it look like a pretty small diameter bell?
Yes. It is a state of the art trumpet he helped design. I believe he has to conserve air when he plays now. The bell is a little smaller.
Great lungs
God bless you, Doc.
I agree
Reminds me of the very low music coming out of my dad's stereo every single night.
Good memory I hope
95 incredible
Yes it really is
🐐
Love the video...Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching the video.
Doc 👍
It's great to see the legendary Doc Severinsen playing! I wish one of his many friends with the means, would give him a well deserved tribute concert. I'm in trumpet heaven whenever I listen to any of his performances. His incredible, magnificent unique sound, artistry and virtuosity covers the whole spectrum of the instrument, with unmatched power and feeling. Doc, without a doubt, will always be considered one of the greatest trumpeters ever. His legacy as a musician, band leader, educator and entertainer will continue to inspire all generations to follow. He will always be my #1 trumpet idol.
My number one also. Thanks for the thoughts.
Thank you!
Your very wellcome
Is he playing at cancerblows this month
