#100

Editor's note: Sung by A.Y. [possibly Avrom Yudin], New York City, 1948; Variant: Idelsohn, Thesaurus of Hebrew Oriental Melodies, vol. 10, Song #73. The singer of this nign and all the other melodies without texts from Koydenov (Koydanovo), was born in Baranovits (Baranovichi), bordering White Russia (Belarus). His grandfather was an ardent Hasid of the Koydenov sect

A.Z. Idelsohn, eminent musicologist, credits this melody to the ''court'' of Sadagura [see his Thesaurus of Hebrew Oriental Melodies, vol. 10, song #73]. Each Hasidic ''court'' guarded its own store of nigunim very carefully, but borrowing went on whenever and wherever feasible

Singer's comments: This Koydenov nign was also one of my grandfather's melodies. About this tune, my father told me that when Rebe Shneyer-Zalmen of Lyady, the founder of the Lubavitch (Labavichi) ''court'' of Hasidim, sang it, his high-backed, hand-craved chair, upon which he sat, would rise with him gently and float about in the air
