SUMMARY:J-Talks: “The Boys From the Bronx” with Author Eric K. Reisman
DESCRIPTION:This program is brought to the community by Pozez JCC and its J-Men’s Group.Join us to hear this fascinating story by author Eric K. Reisman in conversation with friend and radio broadcaster\, Mark Lapidus. \n\n\n\n“The Boys from the Bronx” is the true story of 11-year-old boys from the East Bronx who started a sports club in 1938 and remained friends for a lifetime. Synthesizing information from their letters written during and after the war\, and through videotaped interviews\, Eric Reisman\, son of founding group member Bernie Reisman (a distinguished professor of Jewish Communal Services at Brandeis University)\, recounts the story of the Trojans’ brotherly love. \n\n\n\nA first-time author\, Reisman wanted to memorialize this amazing group and explore the influences that shaped their long-lasting friendships. Even if you aren’t familiar with James Monroe High School\, the Ward Theater\, Bronx River Parkway\, Wheeler & Elder Avenue\, and Hymie’s Candy Store\, you will be inspired by the power of this rare male friendship that lasted over 70 years. \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a nostalgic look at stories of brotherly love forged in times of war and peace. If you grew up in NYC\, especially the Bronx\, this presentation will surely resonate with you! Books are available on Amazon in paperback\, hardcopy\, and Kindle versions\, however\, Eric will bring copies for purchase and signing at the event. Please join us for a nostalgic look at stories of brotherly love forged in times of war and peace. \n\n\n\nFee: ComplimentaryAges 13+

SUMMARY:The Friday Morning Music Club Presents: Remembering Kristallnacht
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an afternoon of classical music by the wonderful musicians of the Friday Morning Music Club (FMMC). FMMC has been performing in the DMV for more than 30 years\, bringing free classical music to diverse audiences. They will give a very special concert to remember the Night of Broken Glass – Kristallnacht – which took place in Germany in November 1938 and was a defining event of the Holocaust. \n\n\n\nThe program will include: \n\n\n\n\na sonata for cello and piano by composer James Simon\, who died at Auschwitz during the Holocaust. Simon was a prolific composer but much of his music was lost.\n\n\n\n\n\nselected works for solo piano by Erich Wolfgang Korngold\, a Jewish composer who immigrated to America to escape the Nazis.\n\n\n\n\n\nadditional works for cello and piano (by a different cellist)\, played on a cello that was “rescued” from the Holocaust. These will include Jewish-themed pieces by Ernest Bloch (Pieces from Jewish Life:  Prayer\, Supplication; Jewish Song) and Maurice Ravel (Deux Melodies Hebraique: Kaddish and L’Enigma Eternal).\n\n\n\n\nPlease join us for a moving concert of Jewish music in reminiscence of this fateful event. \n\n\n\nFee: Complimentary. Registration required.
