thanks for posting, this brings back a lot of memories, I watched mr welks show every week as a child, and I prefer this kind of music to what they call music today, and we don,t have decent tv shows like this anymore you can watch with your family, so thanks for posting this and bringing back some wonderful memories
You know...it's funny how I never appreciated this while watching it growing up....but now that that's happened I've nothing but respect for the gentlemen now! Well I'm also a brass player so the tubist is kind of special too...
The fact that he can play this song on a tuba is... WOW!!! That's hard especially because it takes more time then the other instruments to get the air all the way through
I have memories of car trips and my dad tapping in time on the steering wheel to this. Until recently , I didn't know this song's title. I'm not sure who's more tired, the dancers, the tuba player or me watching !!
I loved playing bass in polka bands and watching a packed floor of couples dancing, especially those that were really good. Sometimes a few of the seasoned couples would do what I called a perimeter dance. A man and woman would do these short steps with their arms locked, side by side, and skip around the outside perimeter of the dance floor with beaming smiles, glad that their dance lessons paid off. When lower priced wedding DJs started to replace live bands, dancing became scores of women racing to the dance floor, beer in one hand, a smoke inbthe other, sliding on their nylons the instant Cotton Eyed Joe was played. When Macarena became popular, dancing became extinct, then weddings followed.
I just love the big grin Mr. Welk always has on his face when he dances. Pure joy! Sadly this is something my generation has lost. They have traded real joy and fun for staring at a screen with a blank dead look on their face. And when they do "dance" it's not really.
@GAP4EVER yes it is part of Northern Mexican culture . Because many Germans and Polish immigrated to Northern states like Sinaloa and Chihuahua and Nuevo Leon .
+Rusty Wolfe I am just saying in general. Since Richard was playing, I just complimented on him and that his wife has a great husband that loves her and she has her talents. I knew that that was Cissy dancing and not Mary Lou.
+taylor laski Lawrence Welk always did have more talent then he could ever showcase in a weekly hour. Mary Lou Metzger is a perfect example of that. She was in the trio with Gale Farrell and Sandi Griffiths and was always dancing with Jack Immel. But she could've just as easily stepped in and became Bobby Burgess' new dance partner when Cissy King got fired. Gale Farrell''s another example. Nobody could beat Jo Ann Castle's piano playing. But Gale Farrell could give her a run for her money. But because Lawrence Welk had so many talented people, she very rarely got the chance to play.
I have heard this number played all my life and never knew it was called the "clarinet polka". I have never heard it played on a clarinet before either. Maybe the word "clarinet" in this case translates to something else. Anybody know?
I'm sorry...but "The Clarinet Polka" isn't the correct name! It's "Klarinettenmuckl". And hell, Mary Schneider???? I'm a mix of Bavarian, Austria and South Tyrol...I will die, when I've to hear Mary Schneider. That's no yodeling culture...you never heard a real bavarian or austrian Jodler with its mystical spirit.
Come on...give it a break...its about tuba, not yodelling. Talent is TALENT. Too much dumbing down in public stool now days...Heck I yodel when I eat habaneros during expulsion of one of obama's kinfolk... Now if you'll excuse me whilst I entertain my new girl friend who is an auctioneer that can yodel, AND suck start a Harley...SIMULTANEOUSLY!!!! You who like to throw off on stuff you won't ever be able to do need to just go bungee jump with a tow rope off the highway bridges in front of a semi!!!
I'm 67 and grew up watching Lawrence Welk! This is my favorite polka! Those were the days!
Grew up on the farm with my grandparents watching Lawrence Welk on black and white TV. Those were the good old days!
T cry
I don't care how old Lawrence Welk gets, he can still perform fabulously.
love to go back to these days-didn't realize how great they were back then...
I guess it is kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good website to stream new movies online ?
Amen to that
Ummm no
Love to listen to the Clarinet Polka and the Lawrence Welk Show was great, wish the would show it on TV again. ❤👍👍
It’s on public tv stations
You will NEVER hear a better Tuba player...
thanks for posting, this brings back a lot of memories, I watched mr welks show every week as a child, and I prefer this kind of music to what they call music today, and we don,t have decent tv shows like this anymore you can watch with your family, so thanks for posting this and bringing back some wonderful memories
you gotta love Laurence polkaing at his age and when he says 'this girl is too wild for me' , he is close to busting a spring!
70 yo and so glad my mom had me watch Lawrence Welk with her on Saturday night.. Great music, so much better than stuff on tv today.
You know...it's funny how I never appreciated this while watching it growing up....but now that that's happened I've nothing but respect for the gentlemen now! Well I'm also a brass player so the tubist is kind of special too...
We had 3 channels growing up in Germany, and this was on one of them. I always enjoyed it.
The fact that he can play this song on a tuba is... WOW!!! That's hard especially because it takes more time then the other instruments to get the air all the way through
Playing fast is SO hard
This was terrific! I used to watch Lawrence Welk every Saturday night! Thanks for the excellent post!
I loved it! I saw this show when it first aired.
I have memories of car trips and my dad tapping in time on the steering wheel to this. Until recently , I didn't know this song's title. I'm not sure who's more tired, the dancers, the tuba player or me watching !!
I've just recently learned that polka dancing is a whole aerobic workout.
Amazing tuba. dancing, and accordion!
Wow! That tuba is really pumping away! 😜🔥🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🤣🤪
Loved his playing ...used to watch this program all the time back in the day :-)
Polka is so popular in Poland even now in the XXI century. There's no a wedding party in Poland without it. Some thing seem to never change.
Paulus 'never change' you need 2 more for that light bulb
Whantyeary
This tune is used in polish radio in programem "lato z radiem"
Timeless music for people of any age.
I'm Mexican and our banda music and dance has these roots. We love it.
I miss Myran Floren.....Accordionist extraordinaire....
Thank you chen73, I use to watch it in PBS Detroit but it is no longer on there and I haven't seen it on the other stations which I have.
I always come to this video when I’m down and looking for some cheering up.
That was awesome!
I love Poland after listen this when I was 5 years old

My brother also played bass for a polka band and said it was some of the best fun he had in his whole career.

this is super professional. Why aren't people classy-talented like this anymore!?
braindamage LW hired only the BEST.
They are everywhere. You must be going to the wrong places.

Powder blue tuxes aren’t classy.
Super. To jest Polka Lata z Radiem. Polish best music 1 Program polskiego radia.
Richard Maloof is superb! his playing and techniques inspired me to learn and master the bass. i tried the tuba and it wasn't for me.
These polkas were so popular in North Dakota. Don't know if they still are; I hope so!.
Laurence - more talented than I ever imagined.....
Candy mountain!

Bravo!

I wondered how long Lawrence would have been able to keep that up. Polkas are high-energy dances.
GO Mr. Welk!
😊🎉❤ Fantastic!
F a n t a s t i c ! Now that's entertainment!
When I was in Honolulu in 1979-80....
it is the candy mountain theme.
MYRON ROCKS!!!!

It was your hips that made her wild, Mr. Welk!
Bravissimo
No matter what anybody says,no one can beat myron on the accordion !!
BRAAAAAAWOOOO

I think the maestro was 25 years older than I am now at the time this was filmed. Yet he is clearly more fit than I am. I really need to get in shape.
Round is a shape!

Clarinet Polka came first, but I sort of like that's it's based off of the polka.
Choo choo choo!
Mary Lou Metzger is one lucky lady.With her voice and dancing skills her and Richard make a good couple. After all the are husband and wife.
+taylor laski But that's Cissy King dancing in the clip - not Mary Lou Metzger.
+Rusty Wolfe I am just saying in general. Since Richard was playing, I just complimented on him and that his wife has a great husband that loves her and she has her talents. I knew that that was Cissy dancing and not Mary Lou.

"The Clarinet Polka" is definitely the correct title. Check out Mary Schneider's yodeling version. It blows away this one.
I'm sorry...but "The Clarinet Polka" isn't the correct name!
It's "Klarinettenmuckl".
