German friends:
A friend of mine lives in the US. Their 104 yr old mum is dying.
She fled the Nazis in WW2 and lived in the US every since.
In her final days/ weeks(?) there's need for gentle, soothing songs from her childhood, so from roughly 90-100 yrs ago.
Can you suggest any?
Thank you.
Plz RT.
