There were many songs composed in Poland in pre-war time meant for audience speaking Polish language, regardless their roots or ancestry. Some of them were picturing people, their habits and customs, according to Jewish tradition; no wonder, there were more than 3 million Jews in the country on Vistula river.Tango 'Rebeka' is not the only example of the kind, although seems to be the most popular: story of a poor girl, shop attendant in a small town, where one day a handsome and rich gentleman from 'the great world', passing by, asks her for 'Ergo' product. She will not forget this visit and the image of 'the prince' -- as a love at first sight -- will haunt her all her life.Before the war, a full text version was recorded only by Zofia Terné (1932). After the war the tango-song became a Polish standard recollecting times "when Jews were among us". Sung by such interpreters as Wanda Warska, Elżbieta Kępińska, Ewa Demarczyk, Sława Przybylska and many, many others.From 1993 Przybylska's CD "Alef Bejs"Janusz Sent - piano
