Western Pennsylvania's Polka Ambassador, Bill Seles became the area's heavyweight Cleveland-style promoter through four decades on stations WKPA in New Kensington and WHJB in Greensburg. Broadcasting the "Bill Seles Polka Bandstand" seven days a week, he built the area's greatest polka audience by far. An innovator, Bill originated the two-hour "Waltz Time Serenade," a Saturday evening, all-waltz format. His famous polka festivals, held twice each year at Seven Springs Mountain Resort, are among the very best showcases for Cleveland-style orchestras anywhere in the world. He also leads polka tours to worldwide destinations. Exercising strict quality control over the selections aired, Bill has strived to assure that polkas hold universal appeal among cosmopolitan audiences tuning in.
