In our 12 years of bringing you Jewish Humor Central we have posted 93 versions of Hava Nagila from countries around the world. The song is immensely popular but categorizing it has been challenging. Is it a Jewish folk song? A Hebrew folk song? An orchestral piece? A wedding dance? Yes to all of the above.
But to the Bucharest Grand Orchestra in Romania, it's Christmas Jazz, as presented in a concert last month in the country's capital. Featured performers are accordionist Emy Dragoi and violinists Alessia and Bianca Dragoi accompanied by the orchestra.
Enjoy!
