Masterful pianist Jon Simon blends his extraordinary technique and improvisational talent with timeless folk melodies from the Hanukkah tradition. Jon interprets nine well-known songs in a variety of musical styles, including two soulful versions of "Rock of Ages," and an upbeat swing rendition of "I Have a Little Dreydel," and the festive "O Hanukkah O Hanukkah," with a Latin twist. This album should appeal to those celebrating the Hanukkah tradition, as well as all piano music lovers. ~ MusD, Rovi
