Review

CMJ (12/20/99, p.27) - "...features a wide range of artists performing a mix of mostly original secular and Chanukah holiday tunes..."
Dirty Linen (12/99-1/00, p.54) - "...some new tunes to usher in the moment....manages to add new meaning while reinforcing Hanukah's sentimental and uplifting moods....By turns mournful and joyful these songs draw on history and integrity to offer a little bit of hope..."

Title Note

Compilation producers: Robert Duskis, Bob Appel.

While there have been many albums featuring pop/jazz artists performing Christmas music, there haven't been many albums celebrating Jewish holidays. While the focus of FESTIVAL OF LIGHT 2 is on Hanukkah, the artists--an intensely varied lot--put their personal and unique spins on many Jewish holiday traditions. This set covers a dizzying array of artists, each of whom is aware of his or her cultural roots, yet there's no limitations on the performers stylistically. You get the daffy, XTC-by-way-of-Brooklyn pop of They Might Be Giants (their "Feast of Lights" rhymes "Hanukkah" with "harmonica"); the Quiet Storm-mellow stylings of Dave Koz; the whopping, swaggering bop-oriented jazz of the Frank London Big Band; the invigorating, swirling electronic-pop-tinged textures of Continuo and Le'eyla. For the eclectic, for the curious, for those who can appreciate all music regardless of style, FESTIVAL OF LIGHT 2 is cause for celebration.
