Stare polskie tango: 'Jesienna piosenka'

Autumn with her cold and misty days arrived in my country so early (still in Summer, Sept.14...) this year and this fact made me reach for a tango with autumn air -- "Autumn song", the title. Tango composed and written by Jakub Kagan and Michał Tyszkiewicz and recorded by Hanka Ordonówna in 1934. A count, Michał Tyszkiewicz, husband (young and handsome...)of the star turned out to be brilliant lyricist and had written for his great wife many a text which became later her great hits.

Hello Jurek: as the son of Polish-Jewish emigrants to the USA, I am so grateful to you for posting these wonderful melodies which I vaguely recall from my childhood (I am now 63yrs old. Not only are they beautifully melodic, but they evoke a world which, while gone, I-- thanks to you -- can vicariously appreciate. Jack

I am deeply touched by your memories and your present words...-

I hear this song for the umpteenth time. Amazing and delightful is it. Never tired to hear it.

My best wishes !

Fantastic tango! I wonder why so many songs from the 30-40s touch the strings of our souls-probably that is because their music and lyrics have some magical magnetic appeal, irresistible charm of eternal love, sadness and nostalgia... Thank you for uploading this wonderful charming tango, panie Jurku!

mam nadzieję, że te czyste lata nadejdą, gdy ludzie wreszcie przestaną dawać władzę komunistom pod każdą postacią

Me gusta esta cancionista, me recuerda a Ada Falcón.

Dzieki za wzruszenia i przypomnienie tych lat "czystych ", lat prawdy, honoru i uczciwosci, ktore minely bezpowrotnie nie tylko w Polsce.

Przepiękna piosenka w wykonaniu Hanki Ordonówny która mnie urzekła swym pięknem i jakiś niesamowitym czarem.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one who loves Ordonka. I wish she could be more recognised here in the US. She was truly incredible.
