RE: words and music for Ocho kandelikas

[Joel Bresler <jbresler...>]

Saw Flory Jagoda (et famille) and Voice of the Turtle in Concert last
Saturday - great fun! We should always credit Flory with words and music
for this song...I'm starting to see recording liner notes that seem to
assume that this piece is steeped in antiquity.

Best, Joel
