WNYC celebrates the spirit of the Maccabeem, the small band of rebels whose victory over the powerful, oppressive Greek army is celebrated each year during the eight days of Hanukkah.
From the freedom songs of Argentinean singer Mercedes Sosa to Stravinsky's "la Marsaillaise" to Fred Rzewksi's "The People United will Never Be Defeated!," we bring you the sounds of rebellion from around the world.
Weigh in: what songs do you think characterize the victory of the few against the many?
