Re: Yiddish Peysakh songs--

[Judy Pinnolis <pinnolis...>]

Friends:
I was able to locate two Yiddish language Haggadot here at the library that
circulate. One has musical score in the back and one has English
transliteration of some of the Yiddish texts. They are both from the
Workman's Circle/Arbeter and one was published in 1956, the other in 1960.
So,There may still be copies floating around... if someone knows about
this... let me know. If someone wants to inquire of a song in Yiddish for
Passover, I can see if they have it in these books. Also, the table of
contents at the back gives attribution to text and music for some, although
not all, the works.
