Hanukkah, a much-needed light in the darkness, especially now

Such dark times have descended on the world, but the Nation of Israel does not accept it! Our mission is to believe in Gd and do the impossible, just as the Maccabees did 2200 years ago. It takes the light of faith and courage and truth to dispel that darkness. And that is what we all must do.

Celebrate Hanukkah musically

Hanukkah, 5784. Now, more than ever.
So, what the heck is Hanukkah REALLY about? It's about faith, and a wonderful new song with its own Maoz Tzur included!

Learn Jewish songs with lyrics, MP3s, and karaoke backing tracks

By far the most important part of this website is to share great Jewish music with you, and help you to enjoy and learn Jewish songs for the holidays and for other special moments. Each song page has an MP3 recording, a karaoke backing track for you to download and use, and the lyrics and their translation. I also researched great recordings of the songs and provide you with links to hear and purchase those tracks.

Im Eshkachech Yerushalayim

A beautiful thing happened on the way to the Kotel. Here is my remix, decades after the first recording, of this song from my album, Gesharim. I cranked up some old gear, rerecorded the solo in a new arrangement, kept the original backing tracks, and pulled out the video camera. Enjoy this rediscovery!
