Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of lights, is observed in 2019 from December 22nd to December 29th.

MPR's Mindy Ratner has produced a holiday special about the music, history, foods and traditions of Hanukkah.

It's called "Candles Burning Brightly."

The celebration lasts for eight nights, and Minnesota Public Radio classical music hosts Mindy Ratner and Bill Morelock give us a musical holiday special.
