[HANASHIR:6871] Re: HANASHIR digest 993

[Hazzanatu <Hazzanatu...>]

The song "Amen" that Laura Berkson is looking for is found in a new 
publication called "Shirim L'a-Ohavim Lashir - Songs for Those Who Love to 
Sing" by Efi Netzer.  This is a beautiful and very complete Israeli Song 
Anthology, which is available through TARA.  It contains the melody line and 
guitar chords, but it is clearly intended for Israelis or those comfortable 
in Hebrew.  All the notes about the songs are written in Hebrew, although the 
musical notation is written with transliteration.  It is also a very 
expensive volume, but an excellent addition to an extensive music library.

Laura - I hope you can teach "Amen" to your choir.  It is truly a beautiful 
and moving song.  I am hoping to include it in my annual music program this 
year.
