30 Oct 06 - 03:30 AM (#1871944) Subject: Translation from Italian Required From: GUEST,Dazbo I've got a mazurka written by Enzo Conti of Tre Martelli that I'm in the process of learning. It's called: Uacia-ch 'al-pianz Can some one please translate it into English for me and the correct pronounciation for it. Thanks |
