Chanukah in Story and Song

Narrated by Leonard Nimoy and sung by the acclaimed vocal sextet The Western Wind Vocal Ensemble, Chanukah in Story and Song is a unique holiday program presenting 25 eclectic selections. The program features Latino songs of the Spanish Jews, Yiddish melodies of Eastern Europe, modern Israeli tunes and the ensemble’s original version of “I Have a Little Dreydle.”

The ensemble performs a cappella as well as with instrumental accompaniment. The narration, written by Rabbi Gerald Skolnik, sheds new light on the Chanukah’s customs and rituals.
