You are of course absolutely correct! I believe I mixed him up with Samuel
Cohen from Moldavia whom I believe either adopted the music from the Moldau
or from the original folk song.

Sorry to disappoint you regarding the author of "Hatikva". His name was
Naftali Hertz Imber, born in 1856 in a small "shtetl" in Galizia (at present
part of Western Ukraine) and not in Moldavia.
