Lou Sadar is equally talented playing the saxophone, clarinet, or the flute. More importantly, he taught the instruments and gave many polka musicians a good foundation in music. Lou joined the Johnny Pecon band in 1960, when he took Eddie Platt's place. He was a member of the band during a very busy period of time. Lou appeared with Pecon and Trebar on television and on recordings. Lou started his career with Russ Carlyle's big band in 1941. He was inducted into the service during World War II, and became a member of the Air Force Band for four years. After discharge, Lou joined Ray Anthony's orchestra, and later Vic Stuart's band. For 20 years, he was a teacher of the instruments he played. Lou, a Clevelander, worked as business agent for the Musicians Union, Local 4.
