Biographical History
Flory Jagoda was a Bosnian-born musician who brought the traditional ballads of her Sephardic ancestors and the melodies of the Ladino language to American audiences through performances and recordings. After surviving an internment camp during the Holocaust, Mrs. Jagoda married an American soldier, Harry Jagoda, and settled in Northern Virginia in the 1940s. She is best known for her original Hanukkah song, “Ocho Kandelikas” (“Eight Little Candles”).
