Dear Christian,

AFAIK, Koylyn means "coal" but also pains or sorrows.
The Mishka Tsiganoff's 1920s recording was reissued on the CD:
"Klezmer Music, Early Yiddish instrumental Music, First Recordings
1908-1927"
"Koylyn" was also recorded later on the following CDs:
" Ich hob a Nigun" by the Maxwell Street Klezmer Band, live at a festival in
Fürth (Germany) 1994 ...
(D'you remember, Lori?)
"Chicken" by Kapelye.
As "bulgar" by Bente Kahan on the CD "Yiddishkeit"
A rather approximate music notation was edited as "Kolyn" by Mike Curtis
(Advance Music).
