Description
A series of great early Opera performances: From 1902 G&Ts to 40s wartime German records:
First recording of the FAMOUS CLARINET POLKA Dziadunio credited as Columbia Orch but actually the first record by Frantisek Przybylski and his POLISH VILLAGE Orch - as opposed to the frantic pace of modern recording, this has a very relaxed slow gait.
Two of Heindl’s principal Chicago discoveries were Frantisek Przybylski and his Polish “village orchestra” and Anton Brousek and his Bohemian military band ensemble. Both would record widely in years to come.
In 1915, Columbia made its first Chicago recordings, and a group led by Frank Przybylski recorded 'Laughing Polka' ('Cieszmy Sie', literally 'Let Us Rejoice') (Columbia E-2221); on the other side was 'Dziadunio Polka,' which was the ancestor of 'Clarinet Polka.'"
10" 78 rpm record
Condition:
EXCELLENT minus, unworn, scuffs, 2cm light scratch on Ciesmy, plays very quiet some crackle, two clicks start of music
A Great COPY
"The Clarinet Polka" or "A Hupfata"[1] (Polish "Polka Dziadek", Estonian "Vanaisa polka" – Grandpa Polka) is a popular musical composition from the end of the 19th century. Since 1971 it has been used as an opener in Lato z Radiem - one of the most popular shows of Polskie Radio Program I.[2] The piece, performed (as its name implies) as a polka, has a simple and catchy melody, featuring a prominent extended eight-note arpeggio. It is typically performed in B-flat major.
According to Polskie Radio Program I, the music was created in Austria by a composer named A. Hupfat.[2] Other sources claim that "The Clarinet Polka" was written under the name "Dziadunio Polka" by the Polish composer Karol Namyslowski.[3]
