Whoops -- sorry for making this two messages:
There are also three terrific Chassidishe songs, all of which are tunes
that apply to any of the Three Festival Holidays:
1.  Keli Atah (comes from Hallel)
2.  Atah B'chartanu (from Yom Tov Amidah)
3.  V'Samachta v'chagecha
Also, not necessarily a chassidic tune (not sure where it comes from):
4.  "Y'varech et beit yisroel" -- part of Hallel
I'm sorry I can't identify the songs any better than that.  If needed, I
can sing it over the phone and/or create a bare-bones midi file with the
tunes.
