And I have about 4 or 5 different melodies that have been written for it,
most nicer than the one most people use.  One or more will eventually be one
my next album.  Can you possibly hold back your excitement?  :-)

Chevra,

I am looking for the music of a Chanukah which begins with the words:
"Baruch Ato...". It is about a father who is lighting the Chanukah menorah
for his son.
     
Carol,
You can find it in Yontifdike Teg, published by the Jewish Education Press
I think there's a more recent edition than I have here, may have a
different publisher. The Workmen's Circle Bookstore might have it
