Chanuka. One of the tracks has a tune that's like a jazzed up Hatikva

But I began looking into Irish/Jewish culture and finding that I can find
that indeed there is a strong albeit small community - progressive orthodox
in particular - but I cannot find any specific articles or references to the
music.
Any suggestions?

Though very small, there is quite an active Jewish community in Ireland and
it has been very well accepted by non Jews.
I was recently given a book, "Little Jerusalem" on the Jewish community of
Ireland..very interesting.
Approximately 3 weeks ago, The Jewish Journal in Los Angeles had an article
on the Irish-Jewish community as well. It might still be on their web site
at: www.jewishjournal.com
Evidently a fair amount of Irish music "sounds klezmer"
