Re: cool/dynamite khanuka song

[elkahn <elkahn...>]

There's a recording of "Ocho kandelikas" by the Yugoslav singer Flory
Jagoda available through TARA. The title is Kantikas di mi nona or Songs
my grandmother. CS# SF-FJA-30C. 

Joshua Jacobson did an arrangement of this tune for the Zamir Chorale of
Boston a few years ago. It probably can be purchased from Zamir or
TRANSCONTINENTAL.

Hope this helps.
