Re: FW: Music Question -- Nigun Bialik

[Susan Lerner <meydele...>]

It's not listed in the CD "Nights in Canaan, Early Songs of the Land of Israel 
(1881-1946)," but that doesn't mean that it isn't authentically from that 
period, as the CD is vocal.  Edwin Seroussi at Hebrew University would probably 
know.
