This title, is the name of a popular white flower in Austria.
Many of us probably fell to sleep to this little melody many years ago. 
Done on the Alkire tuning and a good one perhaps for you
EHarp players. Recorded on my acoustic EHarp this date.

Roy,
the funny thing is that here in Austria almost nobody knows that "Edelweiss" song or the "Sound of Music" musical...
First time I heard about it was when I was working as a tour guide for American students, and was told by my boss to look into that musical beause everybody from the US would inquire about it.

Interesting Roman!
The song is done beautifully in the movie. Very moving.
Aside from that, my mother sang me to sleep with that
melody { so she told me one time  }
and Bernice did the same with our three children.
Now here I am still playing it.

Roy -- really nice. I loved it.
I also truly enjoyed your version of "Teach Your Children" on Jacks' site.
