Vasilios Saleas
Saleas was considered one of the most famous of the Ala Turka style clarinet playets from Greece. Eventually settling in the United States, Saleas was a popular musician in the Greek and Belly Dance nightclubs of New York City. This is the only recording existing that features his classics Greek folk songs.
Saleas was born in the city of Mesolonghi [in the western region of Roumeli] in 1928. This was during the era of famous Greek folk clarinetists such as Kostas Giaouzo, Kostas Karayiannis, Yiannis Kyriakatis, Nikos Karakostas and other great folk artists. Vasili Saleas brought forth a different style of playing. He was also responsible for showing that the folk style of playing clarinet was not only an instrument that played folk music during village celebrations but an instrument which could be a part of any orchestra or ensemble or of any recording group. That was the legend of Vasili Saleas. Saleas was a name among music circles in Greece that touched everyone everywhere.
