Jazz Star Grandma Soothes Infant Grandson With Entrancing Clarinet Solo

Soothing a crying baby isn’t always easy, but it seems some people have the magic touch. Jazz musician Doreen Ketchens loves to play the clarinet. Her music has earned her nicknames such as Lady Louie, Miss Satchmo, and The Female Louis Armstrong. And while she has many fans, none seem to love her music quite like her grandson.

 

A viral video of Doreen playing You Are My Sunshine for the baby will warm your heart like a nice hot cup of tea. Doreen performs an upbeat version of the tune while the little boy nestles on her shoulder. He is very clearly happy to be with his grandmother and can feel her love not only in her touch but with her beautiful music, too.

Doreen effortlessly blows on her clarinet as the baby rocks along. There is so much love and sweetness in the interaction, and it’s easy to tell they’re both in heaven.
