chosen.content: Many Christmas songs were written by Jewish composers or were adapted from Jewish cultural or religious sources due to Jewish cultural affinities with the holiday. Some notable Jewish composers of Christmas songs include Tony Bennett, Irving Berlin, Mel Tormé, Binyamin “Ninya” Aronin, and Johnny Marks. Additionally, many classic Christmas carols were adapted from traditional Jewish prayers and folk songs. Furthermore, the Christmas season holds a special significance in the Jewish faith, with Chanukah often falling during or near Christmas, allowing for overlap of the two holiday seasons in Jewish households. Lastly, a large number of the popular Christmas songs from the 1940s, ‘50s and ‘60s were written or co-written by composer and lyricist Jerry Leiber, one half of the songwriting duo Leiber and Stoller.

rejected.content: Many well-known Christmas songs are actually written by Jewish people. This is largely due to the Jewish participation in the American music industry from the early 19th century through today. Many Jews had a role in creating the modern American music industry, such as creating iconic recording studios and publishing companies, as well as performing, producing and writing music. In addition, the secular celebration of Christmas created opportunity for Jewish people to become involved in writing Christmas songs since many holiday themes resonate with all cultural backgrounds and faiths. Furthermore, Christmas is one of the biggest music sales period of the year and many Jewish people are able to capitalize on this and make profits from writing and performing Christmas songs.
