Re: Avrom Sutzkeverdear Sylvia, Sylvie & listers,

ASFAIK, the lyrics of 'Mayn Shvester Khaye' are by Binem Heller and music by 
Chava Alberstein.

Avrom SUTSKEVER wrote Blayene platn, Haneros halelujyah, Shpiltsayg, Unter 
dayne vaysse shtern...

BTW, 'Mayn Shvester Khaye' is one of the most moving songs I ever heard... 
Can't hear it or sing it without tears in my eyes... But did you notice that 
this song is mostly in major scales? A stone in the gardens of those who think 
that major is freylekh and minor sad!

The most beautiful of the songs was recorded by Chava Alberstein in The Well - 
Mayn Shvester Khaye -  with the Klezmatics.
