Dennis Polisky and the Maestro’s Men bring Polka to Webster<br />
This Sunday, Sept. 5, it’s the<br />
Annual Labor Day Weekend<br />
Polka Dance at the PACC in<br />
Webster.<br />
The event features Dennis<br />
Polisky and the Maestro’s Men and<br />
the Pulaski Brass Band. The<br />
Maestro’s Men have been performing<br />
together since 1996 and have<br />
seven recording releases. Their<br />
diverse repertoire includes not just<br />
polkas but also waltzes, swing, dixieland,<br />
Big Band, Latin, Italian,<br />
Irish, German, and more. The<br />
musicians’ unique backgrounds<br />
and experience form the heart of<br />
the Maestro’s Men sound.<br />
Bandleader Dennis Polisky grew<br />
up in a musical family, learning the<br />
clarinet and sax at the age of nine<br />
from his father Ray. Grandfather<br />
Charles Polisky performed with<br />
the original Kryger Orchestra of<br />
Pennsylvania and Paul Whitman’s<br />
big band.<br />
The rest of the band comes from<br />
equally talented and prestigious<br />
backgrounds. Jackie Libera<br />
(vocals, keyboard, and bass) is the<br />
son of Polka Hall of Famer John<br />
Libera and has been a successful<br />
singer, bandleader, and radio host<br />
for many years. Ken Yash (drums<br />
and vocals) has been in many<br />
bands with Libera and others since<br />
the age of 15. The group also<br />
includes the accomplished Rich<br />
Bernier (accordion), and the energetic<br />
Andy Galarneau and Jim<br />
Motyka (both trumpet).<br />
In addition to numerous band<br />
and song awards, the Maestro’s<br />
Men album “Strike Up The Band”<br />
(2003) was nominated for a<br />
Grammy. The group has also<br />
received numerous rave written<br />
reviews and was voted “Band Of<br />
The Year” by W.A.R.E. radio.<br />
