'Twas the Night Before Hannukkah: The Musical Battle Between

'Twas the Night Before Hannukkah: The Musical Battle Between Christmas and the Festival of Lights

A unique holiday album featuring The Ramones, Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, The Klezmatics, Ella Jenkins, Mel Torme, Dinah Shore, Sammy Davis Jr., Benny Goodman, and many more!

This album the first of its kind is a double-disc project that examines the arc of Hanukkah, from a festival reclaimed by young Americans in the 1870s to its full-throated explosion in the 20th century as the Jewish alternative to Christmas. The goal of the project is to use music to examine the relationship between the two holidays and their impact on acculturation and negotiations of personal, social, and communal identity within American culture.
