[HANASHIR:7271] RE: Who wrote Pitchu (Pitchu) Li?

Who wrote Pitchu (Pitchu) Li?You might want to ask Debbie, as I think she's
the first person I ever heard use it at HN (and it had been used in previous
years, not just this past year.) I am sure it's not of recent vintage.

  Anyone know who wrote the melody for this hora-style version of Pitchu Li,
(it's also a round) which starts 'Pitchu Pitchu Li'? It was sung a lot at HN
last summer.

  In e minor the opening notes are:

  b-e-e-e-e---g-f#-d-e

  Can anyone recall learning it back in the 70s or 80s or is it more recent?

  Thanks,
  Jeff
