Polka Family - Clarinet Polka

[@MorganJServices]

Every single hair on me stood straight up. It has been so long since I heard this old time favorite. It was a mainstay at every Polish wedding my family had. I used to hear it on our local Polka station sometimes during milking too. The station had "the milking hour show". I miss those days.

I play accordion & I play trumpet. Listening to this makes me smile - and I think that's what polka music is supposed to do. Thanks for posting this.

[@OttoRax]

Top notch polka band. Sounds like the St. Stan's church picnics when I was a kid.

[@johnnymossville]

Oh man I love this. This song is the reason I took up Clarinet lessons in the 4th grade. Just Wonderful.

[@swingshepherd]

You don't have to be polish to love polish polkas. There is no comparison. The clarinet's are awesome. This rendition really rocks.

[@adds451]

as a kid I listened to this over and over for about 10 hours...traveling from kansas to flordia...at the time I hated it...but now I love it!

[@ToweringInfernoOrch]

WOW!!!!! thats the HIPPEST CL Polka EVER!!! From One Trumpet to another, man your on FIRE!!!

[@adelphitom]

thank you guys very much for the comments and for letting me know who the 3rd clarinet player was! I have more that I will be posting as soon as I get time to transfer them onto my computer. Anyone have any requests of bands they would like to see?

[@armybro54]

I wish i could play my trumpet as well as him. I remember i talked to him about how he got so good.... but practice and many many lessons does not seem to add up to being able to play that well to me. That is def a gift right there!

[@chrissyms6317]

It's really funny seeing myself years later...(Chris Szymczak) I'm playing pickup notes .. Jimmy Weber is playing lead and Eddie is harmony to that... Someone asked when the tune was written. Originally "grandfathers polka translated from polish" or later known as Clarinet Polka was written "officially" in 1895 but may be based on a polish folk medley.

[@LilMsInnocent]

Awesome...Polish girl here...and love it !!!!!

[@Simone5307]

A lot of people in this column are playing down the Polish American polka style. I now live in Alabama and this music is almost nonexistent down here. Perhaps these comments are from people who are heavy into hiphop or rock. I am a Polish and I love this music. Keep up the fabulous sound!

[@trafficwarrior]

Good Job! I always like this group-family oriented

[@CCarolsurf]

[@jabtot]

I like very much the austrian music by such musical ensembles! Unfortunatly, these artists aren't often invited in France!

[@tejojo]

I heard this in the Germany section of Epcot and in St. Augistine (both places are in Florida).

[@sueandcrew]

wot the hell is the official name for this polka? ive been trying to download authentic polka songs in my dads memory and need to know the name of the these great classics....

[@harveygloth3166]

if the person who did not like the trumpet he should try to play it better

[@Blitz350]

Wrong, the polka originated in Germany and then later became more associated with the Poles.

[@iizabunghole]

Wow thats bad to the bone

[@4ak458]

take that horrible trumpet playing out and you have an outstanding piece of music.

[@bmcgar]

If I wanted to hear blaring trumpet players, the last piece I'd request would be "Clarinet Polka." Simply awful.
