Hilarious Hanukkah Medley: A Solo Performance by Luisa Tedoff Cohen


We're taking a short break from the slick, professionally produced Chanukah music videos released over the last few weeks by Aish, the Fountainheads, the Maccabeats and other groups. We're still working the Chanukah beat, but this time we're presenting an original Hilarious Hanukah Medley created and performed by Luisa Tedoff Cohen.

Luisa is a classically trained singer, with a career in acting, opera, operetta and musical theater. She currently teaches early childhood music at the prestigious Diller-Quaile School of Music in New York City.

This live version of the Hilarious Hanukkah Medley was recorded at a private party in Greenwich Village a few days ago.  Enjoy!

  2. Delightful! Al, if Luisa didn't also write the lyrics herself, please find the lyricist for us, because he/she is another talent to hear more of.

    Please let Luisa know we want video of her next Purim shtick.

  3. According to the youtube description, she wrote the lyrics in 2005 after tiring of singing the same old Chanukah songs. Now I can't stop humming the tune.
