partisan tangos, again



Hi everyone -- just after I posted my request for partisan tangos, I got 
mysteriously bumped off the list, so.... if anyone wrote anything back to
me, I have not been able to see it.  I am back on now, and will reprint my
request, and ask that anyone who responded do so again to me, off list.
Thank you very much.


First a little history, and then a question.

Many  of you know that I have been working for years on a project of
collecting tangos with Yiddish lyrics.  To date I have collected over 150
such tangos, as well as dozens of Polish and Argentine instrumental tangos
written by Jewish composers.  I am writing (and soon performing) a musical,
dance and theatrical performance called Shtil, Mayn Corazon -- A Yiddish
Tango Cabaret, which will debut in Portland, Oregon on December 13th.  (My
website will be ready within the next couple of days, and I will post a
message when it is up and running.)

Here's my question -- of all these songs I have found, including dozens of
ghetto tangos, I have not found any partisan tangos, and there is a part of
my plot that is just calling out for one.   Does anyone know of any?

Thanks in advance,
Jenny
