IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE MISTLETOE is now considered a standard by most print companies. Warner Bros., Hal Leonard, and Cherry Lane currently use it in many of their folio books.

It's published in choral and in piano/vocal single sheet by Hal Leonard. Non-exclusive folio print rights are available. Ditto non-exclusive choral.

Regarding Hanukkah titles:

HAPPY HANUKKAH, MY FRIEND is the first truly successful contemporary Hanukkah song ever to get airplay on AC/MOR/Pop radio. It is featured in piano folio books by Warner Bros., Hal Leonard, and Cherry Lane. It's been performed on network TV specials by such luminaries as Anita Baker, Anne Murray, Johnny Mathis, Vince Gill, Jack Jones, Barbara Mandrell, Marilyn McCoo and others. Because of its inspiring lyric about peace, friendship, and brotherhood between Christians and Jews, it became Hal Leonard's best selling Hanukkah choral piece ever published in the educational market.

LIGHT THE CANDLES OF FREEDOM, our follow up piece to "HHMF" is featured in several Warner Bros. folios and was Hal Leonard's second biggest Hanukkah choral seller ever.

Because of their contemporary nature, both of the above Hanukkah songs are becoming the most often used Hanukkah songs featured in new sheet music Christmas folio books. Non-exclusive folio print rights are available. Ditto non-exclusive choral.
