Chanukah - The Dreidel Game

As the game progresses, players rotate voice parts in new song verses.

Each of Shir Soul’s members sings a particular voice part as they play the Dreidel game. One sings the melody; a second player sings harmony; a third sings bass; and, the forth player sings beat-box. Each time the Dreidel is passed, the singers change their parts as the group switches into a new song together.

The first song is Dreidel. When the Dreidel is passed, players change voice parts and sing Mi Yimalel. The third time the Dreidel is passed voice parts are swapped again, and the players sing Ma’oz Tzur. On the forth pass, we hear another change in voice parts to the tune of The Mashup. It’s fun to watch, repeatedly.

Be sure to click ‘show more’ for a numeric list of chapters, if you'd like to sing along and change voice parts when you pass the Dreidel at your own table. Chocolate coins are optional.
