Album Cover of JSA Chanukah Music Mix<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Chanukah celebrations are joyous occasions, with lots of holiday gifts, decorations and parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eight-day festival of Chanukah retells a story that teaches about hope, the importance of maintaining Jewish traditions, and the symbolic power of light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, at the Judaica Sound Archives<\/strong><\/a> we celebrate Chanukah with music!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year we have put together a wonderful collection of songs that will entertain and delight the entire family. From the Children\u2019s Village Choir singing Hanukkah is Here<\/em><\/a><\/strong> to Moshe Oysher singing Maoz Tzur<\/em> <\/a><\/strong>with his sister Fraydele and his niece Marilyn Michaels, the songs in this collection express the essence of the holiday. Joyous songs, children\u2019s songs that teach about the holiday, traditional songs, and a new twist on an old favorite have been included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please accept this gift of music for you and your family from the Judaica Sound Archives along with our best wishes for a Happy Chanukah!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This special collection is for your listening pleasure only<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em><\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
