Re: Simcha music - Chinese???

[Michel Borzykowski <borzykowski...>]

ALEX,
Nobody else seems to have experienced this situation...
A cousin of mine married a Chinese woman and we played a medley of trad 
klezmer, original compositions, classical and 3 Chinese tunes.
As I didn't know any of them before, I asked the bride to sing them and wrote 
the music down. Perhaps you could do the same: satisfaction guaranteed!
One is 'Tshay na lee' (Where are you) and I don't remember the names of the 2 
others.
But I kept the notes and can send them to you as .jpg attachement, but.... off 
list!
Michal

  Hey Folks, 

  A subset of Nefesh was just hired to provide the music for after a wedding in 
Manhattan.  It is a Jewish wedding and the bride is Chinese.  We would like to 
play some Chinese music after the service along with our usual mix of 
Klezmer/Yemenite/Israeli etc..  Any ideas?
  There will be three of us, Clarinet/Recorder   -  Keyboard/Dulcimer - 
Drums/Guitar.

  Best Regards All,

  Alex
