stolliner nign, klez database

[Ernie Gruner / Cathy Dowden <erniegru...>]

Please can anyone help me with tracing sources:

My klezmer ensemble plays a nigun which I've seen or heard listed with
several titles. 
We've just recorded it and so I'm looking for more info. for CD cover notes.
Can anyone clarify where some of the titles have come from or anything else
about the tune or songs history or meaning or associations?
Any "old" recordings of the tune instrumentally or better still as a sung
nigun?

These are my sources (all the same tune):

1. Footsteps of Bratslav - in Giora Fiedman tune book, ROM productions, and CD

2. Stolliner Nigun - learnt from Deborah Strauss at Klezkamp West 1998 in
Fidl Kapelye

3. Moshe Emet - in "Songs of Joy" edited by Velvel Pasternak - Tara
publications

thankyou,
Ernie (klezmer fiddler from Melbourne, Australia)

ps any thoughts on any online database to crossreference klezmer tunes,
titles, history, recordings?
