5 out of 5 stars A great album!.......2001-12-08

I love this album and I'm not Jewish! The music is uplifting and the young performers wonderful. I keep it on the player the entire holiday season.

5 out of 5 stars A tasty audio latka for the ear and soul.......1999-12-13

The review below captures the essence of the CD. Recorded at Jordan Hall at the New England Conservatory, you may have seen the video broadcast of this performance on PBS. In addition to excellent and stirring renditions of Hanukah favorites, the CD includes the popular SPanish Hanukah song of 8 candle (Ocho Kaandelaros); a humorous Latke Cooking Demonstration by the octogenerian comedian Ms. Chasia Segal; and a blues/gospel rendition of "I Have A Little Dreydl" which will change the way you sing it forever.

5 out of 5 stars Lively, touching and richly varied entertainment..Great!.......1999-11-08

Take Theodore Bikel, the storied folk musician and "Fiddler" Tevye, cantor Morton Shames, the Boston Community Gospel Choir, extraordinarily talented musicians and vocalists of the New England Conservatory, and put them all in the hands of brilliant Klezmer/Jazz- Composer, Musician and Impressario Hankus Netsky and you have a stellar show and the recording "A Taste of Channukah"

Wonderful performances are everywhere and newcomer Elizabeth Parvin is a stunning example. Her duet with Bikel, and her solo within it, offer the listener a portal to true vocal brilliance. Her beautiful and expressive soprano mark her as a very bright star on the horizon. Miss Parvin and the other accomplished young performers show how artistic interpretations can be a continuing and fulfilling source of cultural renewal. This CD is a work of art, a lot of fun and a definite winner!

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Very moving CD.......2000-03-14

I have listened to this CD many times and I always find comfort in the beautiful arangements and voices that I hear. I would recommend this CD to anyone who is looking for great Shabbat music, possibly to compliment their Shabbat celebration.

5 out of 5 stars A beautiful arrangement of Shabbos songs.......1999-08-18

Accurately instills the mood and attitude of the Shabbat with beautifully arranged Zemirot and other timeless traditional pieces. The voices alone are like the Malacheim. An especially amazing rendition of the Ashet Chayil and Malachay Asharat. This CD is my personal favorite.
