The musical works on this disc are all quite lovely and moving; yet somehow, they seem oddly incongruent with the festival they are intended to celebrate. The one song most closely associated with Hannuka is Ma 'oz Tzur (aka Rock of Ages and/or O Mighty Fortress, references to the Holy Temple), and it is universally sung to a well-known traditional melody. Here, in a setting by Aaron Miller (1911-2000), arranged by Neil Levin, it is not only the shortest track on the disc, but it is presented in Yiddish rather than Hebrew, and in a Klezmer-like setting that is nothing at all like its familiar tune. Not until the concluding section of Samuel Adler's The Flames of Freedom do we hear the traditional melody, but set against a piano accompaniment that takes a decidedly non-traditional turn in its harmony.

Other pieces on the CD-Leo Low's Likhtelekh ("Little Candles"), Solomon Ancis's Mizmor Shir Hannukkat Habbayit (Psalm 30), and Alexander Olshanetsky's Adonai Z'khranu (Psalm I 15: 12-18) are of a solemnity that seems more appropriate to the cantorial style of the High Holidays than to a festive celebration like Hannuka.

Remarkably, the longest and most fully developed work, Samuel Adler's To Celebrate a Miracle, is a purely instrumental piece for wind band, played magnificently by the University of Cincinnati College Conservatory Wind Symphony, conducted by Rodney Winther. Other participants in this program include Cantors Simon Spiro, Benzion Miller, and Moshe Haschel; Samuel Adler, Neil Levin, Tim Koch, and Ronald Corp as conductors; Abba Bogin and Zhou Jin on piano; and choral contributions from Coro Hebraeico, Schola Hebraeica, the Rochester Singers, Southern Chorale, University of Mississippi, and the New London Children's Choir.

I'm a bit reluctant in calling this a program of "traditional" Hannuka music, inasmuch as it contains a variety of works, all of which may use the trappings of the festival as a basis for titles and texts, but are quite varied in musical style and content, and are not entirely compatible with its character. Nonetheless, as an adjunct to other Archive releases that focus on secular Yiddish song and liturgical synagogue services, this makes a welcome addition.
