Ari Goldwag - Chanukah Light

Ari Goldwag - Chanukah Light

Singer songwriter Ari Goldwag sings “Chanukah Light” in the streets of New York City.

Goldwag performs a peppy Chanukah song of his own creation as he collects discarded materials from the residents of New York. 

His assemblage of junk seems at first to be haphazard as the viewer accompanies him on his journey.  Ultimately, he uses his materials in a clever way to celebrate the Chanukah season in Times Square.

A clever combination of story telling and lively musical performance ending with a clever twist at the end: this is a video you shouldn’t miss.
