The April 13 event, dubbed “Mitzvahs and Music,” will be conducted by Hal France, former artistic director of the Omaha Opera and former music director of the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra. Pianist Stanislav Ioudenitch and vocalist Marcelo Guzzo will perform a selection of Chasidic melodies.

“The evening will come to a spectacular end with two distinguished musical performances,” exclaimed France. "This is a great opportunity to hear two young world-class talents up close in an exciting new venue.

MONROE TOWNSHIP, NJ — Jewish community members here were able to celebrate Purim in Israel Friday without even stepping onto a plane.

The Chabad Jewish Center of Monroe transformed a portion of the Forsgate Country Club to bring a taste of Israel to their lively Purim celebration.

“Purim is the most joyous holiday of the year,” Rabbi Eliezer Zaklikovsky said. “It's the victory of the Jewish people against the king of Persia and the regime of that time.”

Over 700 Turn Out in Support of CSSY!

CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — What can we expect from an organization that its name is long and not very comprehendible (Chevra Simchas Shabos VeYomtov), that is making a dinner for the first time in its history, its benefactors are not known or registered, and whos founder chanted “…people people, open your wallets, take out a dollar and give me the rest!”.

Turns out quite a bit!
