  • Verna, I "think" this titile is Chicago Bum Oberek. It was a Wesoly Stas tune.

  • Man did Casey's concertina & Zima's concertina have a distinct sound that no other concertina has to this day!!! I wonder who owns Casey's box now? I know now Casey Homel's son has Zima's

  • Yeah it sure did!!! I remember playing it over Judys house in her dining room, while Casey was there. Let me tell you the first note sent CHILLS UP MY SPINE!! Not sure who has it now!!! I ordered my concertina through Casey!! That is the closest I can get to his concertina! He had it made for me and tuned to his specks(not tuned like his though). I had to trace my hand on a piece of paper!! I will never ever forget that! Thats why my concertina is so very special to me!!

  • Wow, this was really nice to see. My grandfather will always live on. I now put this on my, myspace and facebook for all my friends to see. My kids got a kick out of it. Thank you, Noelle(Siewierski) Barney

  • It made my day to see the videos of my Dad. He loved his Music, his Cocertina and most of his Fans. He really enjoyed seeing young folks continuing traditions in Concertina Music. Through you his music and love of the Cocertina lives on. Thank you.

  • You know one of the most difficult times was when I played concertina, your dad was in the audience. And Im not sure what song we played but he watched and listened. He was a great one. I never spoke to him but surely admired him.

  • For the good of GOOD polkas! Keep going Verna!

  • You Bet I will Troy!

  • I have never seen Siewierski live before or in person.....thanks so much verna!

  • Your welcome! I thought there might be a few out there that have not seen him! He is a very very nice gentleman whom I adored!

  • I'm glad to see that my Grandfather's music is still kept alive. Thank you to all his fans for letting him live. I miss him dearly.

  • OMG! Your Grandpaw has been one of my mentors on concertina! I have met him and Irene and visited the musical acres home. My sis,Judy Stringhill booked him in our area!  He got me my first concertina, of which I still have and play! I will not part with it for any amount of money! I adore him! He will live as long as Im alive!

    These videos sparked up a lot of young folk whom he was their idol and they never had the opportunity to meet him!

    Thank You for the comment!

    It has made my day
