Dear Jewish Music Institute -  My name is David Liss.  I'm a member of B'nai
Emet Congregation in St. Louis Park, Minnesota -  USA.

We have been long without a cantor.  I am often asked to lead services.   I
need new or old melodies for all the various services that we have at our
synagogue for weekday, Shabbas, and Yom Tov.
Do you have any tapes that I could learn from?  I'd be happy to buy them
from you or to make a donation to your Institute.

Please get back to me as soon as possible.

                                                                thanks,


David Liss

Dear Lorele,

What is wrong with the poem "Halicha Lekesarya" (Eli
Eli) by Hannah Szenes, which was set to music by David
Zahavi?

It is not a later "version" of the Yiddish song, but a
completely different text that has nothing to do with
the Yiddish lyrics!

FWIW: The first "version" of the Yiddish song was a
psalm, which was also entirely in Hebrew :-)


 Groeten,
