RE: Looking for Yiddish song Vivushka vivaynye?

[Jewish Music Institute <jewishmusic...>]

Can any of you help Sophie who has written to the Jewish Music Institute

Dear Sir/Madam,
Hi! I am trying to find a CD with a particular song on it for my partner.
His mother and grandfather used to sing it to him when he was a little boy
though he thinks it is a "love song" rather than a lullaby. He last heard it
sung in Israel when he went there two years ago.
It is quite an old song and he thinks it's called
"Vivushka vivaynye" (Spelling is probably completely wrong!!)
I hope that you know what I'm talking about and that you can help me!
I am trying to find it for him as a surprise as he is going to become a
grandad soon and I know he would dearly love to sing it to Benjamin when he
arrives!
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards
Sophie Tuohy  [sophiecutie (at) hotmail(dot)com]

The list may like to know as well

Hello Benjamin

 I am a singer and I am looking for musicians to perform with.
Unfortunately I live in Montreal.
I am very sorry that I don't live in your area, we are too far to think
about working together on regular basis. But for specific gigs, a tour...
whatever.
I recorded a few CDs. You can hear a few pieces on the website :

I also worked on several musical theater pieces and jazz pieces.
Being French (from France, not Québec), I know also a lot of French songs
that the Americans usually like such as : La vie en Rose etc...

I hope something will emerge for us to meet and work together.
Hélène
