Two of the
most popular of Chanukah
tunes are arranged by
master string pedagogue
Doris Gazda for the
youngest of students.
Though simple, it give
the very young player the
chance to sound wonderful
at the very first holiday
concert.
More than
2000 years ago Israel,
the land of the Jewish
people, was ruled
byGreeks and Syrians. A
small group of Jewish
people fought to free
their country and
defeated the big armies
of their rulers. The Jews
reclaimed the Holy Temple
in Jerusalem and
rededicated it to God. To
celebrate, they wanted to
light the menorah, a
candelabrum with a place
for nine candles. Each
evening they would light
the menorah: a single
candle the first night,
two on the second night
and so on until all eight
candles were lit. The
ninth candle of the
menorah was used to light
the other candles.
However, they found that
they had only enough oil
to burn the candle for
one day. Yet
miraculously, the one-day
supply burned for eight
days. So to celebrate the
miracle of the oil
lasting for eight days,
they commemorated the
event with the festival
of Chanukah.Children
celebrate Chanukah with
singing the Chanukah song
and with gifts of toys
such as dreydls. A dreydl
is a little top that is
spun by dragging the
thumb and one finger
across a little
spindle.
