English title would be something like "From Lucerne towards Weggis". Weggis is a small town about 20 miles sse of Lucerne in central Switzerland. I tried to find the melody on the internet but unfortunately I was not successful. Maybee someone else on the list knows a page with this melody. Wish you a nice weekend! Christof -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: John Liccardi [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 5. September 2002 19:01 An: [email protected] Betreff: [SWITZ] Weggiserlied Perhaps someone could help me solve a mystery. I have an old Swiss made music box with the word "WEGGISERLIED" printed on the bottom. I assume this is the song it plays, but I am curious about the word. I have not been able to translate it from German. I wondered if it was the name of a place in Switzerland, but cannot find it on any map. Does anyone know what this word means? Thanks for your help. John
