Listen to the story of Da Ponte's hidden identity from @Howard Jay Smith
‘A Jewish Priest?’ Why does everyone call you that behind your back? asked Mozart Abbé Lorenzo Da Ponte was Mozart’s collaborator on the composer’s three greatest operas (and three of the greatest operas of all time). Da Ponte lived a life as wild, colorful and ribald as the characters in his ‘The Marriage of Figaro,’ ‘Don Giovanni,’ and ‘Cosi Fan Tutte.’ The ‘Secret Diaries' reveal Da Ponte’s work with Mozart while struggling to hide his Jewishness and survive in an esse...ntially hostile, anti-Semitic world. Critical praise for presenter Howard Jay Smith's book on the topic: "A stunning and complex masterwork on the life of the astonishing bacchanalian renaissance-man, ultra-achiever and rapscallion, the Jewish-born Lorenzo da Ponte. Howard Jay Smith brilliantly juggles with bravura and virtuosity, Lorenzo’s remarkable mind-bending epic life that would have been the envy of Dickens, Voltaire, Homer and Tolstoy. And for the first time he brings to the forefront how Lorenzo’s deep-rooted Jewish DNA catapulted him into immortality." - Tom Greene (Writer/Producer). See more

Here's a client rave for JCC personal trainer Stephanie Bloom! "During this unprecedented time, our health and our wellness is important as ever. My Zoom personal training sessions with Stephanie Bloom have been worthwhile in making sure I am taking care of myself. She does everything she can to make adaptations to exercises with what you have at home. My work with her has made it clear that you don’t need much equipment to get a good workout in and break a sweat. I have loved being able to continue training through the JCC at an extremely affordable rate. I highly recommend taking advantage of this opportunity." - PJ Schwartz
