[HANASHIR:16245] RE: Macabee, mac mac mac Macabee

[Shir Chadash <shir_chadash...>]

I wanted to let you know that I taught this song to my Intergenerational 
Choir to sing at our Annual Shabbat/Chanukah Service and it was one of their 
biggest "hits".  It can be taught in a jiffy, and since I had a short time 
to teach many songs it was the perfect thing.  I had the children sing the 
first line, the moms the second and the dads the third.  The congregation 
loved it.  Thanks, Cantor Allen Leider and hotshabbat.com.
