WILD IRIS CAFE 1161 Lincoln St. Fantastic Food Friendly Prices Best Fishburger in Town 9 AM - 2 PM Weekdays Light The Menorah Calculated by the Jewish lunar calendar, Hanukah occurs at the dark-of-the moon just before the longest night of the year, winter solstice. Hanukah, the longest, darkest night of the year, is celebrated by the lighting of the first of eight candles held in the traditional tree-like candleholder, the Menorah. This year, the holiday falls on Saturday, December 11. Many Jewish families will be celebrating with wonderful food, stories of Judas Maccabee and the renewal of the Temple some 21 centuries ago, betting games using the dreidel, klezmer music, gifts and Hanukah songs. The sounds of Hanukah are captured joyously in "Light the Menorah," a half-hour radio documentary playing on three local National Public Radio member stations this week. Local independent radio producer Marcia Mint Danab spent more than a year putting all the sounds together for this sound collage. She weaves together the stories of Jewish immigrants remembering Hanukah in their native lands, traditional and contemporary songs (1 especial ly enjoy Marsha Berman singing Malvina Reynold's "Eight Candles for the Maccabees"), klezmer music ("The clarinet is Jewish soul music," says Danab), anecdotes (Alan Katz recalls when so many relatives came for Hanukah "in stead of sleeping lengthwise on the bed, you slept crosswise"), recipes, food cooking sounds you can almost smell, and in the background the sound of hap py people eating and drinking, laughing and talking together.
