Tango "Rebeka" will appear at my channel still in the other interesting

version.

Great version. The music sounds like a jewish

lament played on a violin. The favorite jewish

instrument in that period was the violin, played by such greats as Jascha Heifetz. It was only later that jewish musicians began

playing the clarinet such as Benny Goodman,

Mickey Katz and later woody Allen. But the

sad jewish songs were played on a violin.

There must be a violin version of this tune

somewhere.

I am happy you liked it.

Rebeka has been absolutely the most popular song of this kind here; for so many years. Mainly vocal as lyrics are also very important.

Right - violin in the best way suits that lament-like music.

Another gorgeous version. What a voice, and what sensitive singing! And the instruments are just as moving as the voice.

And now it is perhaps the right time to say that the most beloved singer by S. Witas (he maintaned it all his life) was - T.Schipa.

@himko627 Trzeba było napisać przez starszego pana,a nie przes ..madame nie umie pisać i szukać wrażliwości w starych nagraniach Młodego Śpiewaka który był określany jako Utalentowany w swoim czasie!!

[jurek46pink]

Zestarzało się w odbiorze...młodej Pani... - jeno.

"Starszy pan" gdy nagrywał tę piosenkę, miał... 25 lat ! I jest doskonałym świadectwem swojej epoki.

Gold's superior orchestration skill renders a transcendent version of this piece, really superb!
