New Orleans: Bourbon Street Jazz Clarinet

Here's a short clip of a street performance by a jazz band in New Orleans. We were walking down Bourbon Street and heard the sound of a jazzy version of the classic song "House Of The Rising Sun" in the distance. When we got up to where the band was, there was a pretty good sized crowd gathered around to listen. Sharing musical clips on YouTube is tricky due to copyright concerns. I'll just share this brief clip from an instrumental section of the song, featuring a pretty amazing clarinet performance from a woman who actually also sang the lead vocals, since their interpretation of this part of the song really was unique and I hope does not infringe on any musical copyrights. I'm sharing this clip here on my YouTube channel as part of what will later be a much longer story on my web site at www.jimzim.net It will be the story of a Western Caribbean cruise on the Norwegian Breakaway, starting from the port of New Orleans.
