  • Great!

  • Can I be in your band? Mark Twain is your banjo player and your stand-up bassist looks like he's got some good drugs.

  • It's fascinating to watch her fingers fly like that. BTW; wasn't this an Austrian polka from the 19th century?

  • @Suprasylph

    Yes, you're right, the older tune that the 1940's publication was based on is Austrian. There's a great version of on Youtube - search for Klarinett Polka Hupfata for a great version of it played by a brass band, plus some more information about the tune.

  • HOORAH for Grandma's music !!!!!!!! I've been playing this tuine for over 40 years .... WELL DONE !!!!!!!

  • This video is absolutely fantastic. I listed to it often.

  • I had the incredible good fortune to hear them (as the Turkey Pluckers) in the living-room of my boarding house on Corbett St. in Portland, in the winter of 1964. Talk about "National Treasures"..! ^..^

  • Good job Vivian! Barney - get a haircut bro!

  • Fantastic!  Sure makes me want to dance!

  • Vivian is one of the all time heroes in old time music. She's still playing beautiful music today along with her husband, Phil, who can play just about anything!

  • Thank you for posting your videos on You Tube. I love your music and it's great to watch you play. I try to play a number of your tunes from the two Phillips books. Wonderful music. I can't do them justice, but the joy shines through.

  • Marvelous!

  • really great to hear a good ol clarinet polka on the fiddle. vivian williams did a very nice job also. thanks for sharing this wonderful video.

  • This tune was first published in America in 1940, crediting composers Jan Dvoraky and Laurence Paul, although it may be based on an older traditional Polish tune. You can order sheet music for this version of it from the Voyager Recordings website listed at the top of this page, in the "Repertoire Builder Series" No. 110, couple dances.

  • The best I have ever heard!!
