Garza, who graduated from
Interlochen Arts Academy and
Juilliard, also studied at the
Manhattan School of Music. After
their first meeting as undergradu-
ates, she and Michaels became a
couple when both independently
signed up for a summer program in
opera in Italy.
"It was the most romantic place
.on earth," Michaels says.
Now that he's working full-time
at Temple Israel, the 30-year-old
baritone can't spare the time to
complete a formal cantorial pro-
gram..However, a person can
become a .cantor with five years of
congregational experience, if he or
she passes strenuous oral and writ-
ten tests, and Michaels is seriously
considering this option.
"It's been easy to step into the
role of cantor under the mentorship
of Cantor Corrsin," Michaels says.
To increase his fluency and bring
more depth and understanding to
his role at the temple, he is studying .
Hebrew with the Agency for Jewish
Education's Nira Lev. In addition,
he hopes to work with Cantor
Sholom Kalib of Farmington Hills.
Cantor Kalib is author of the
Thesaurus of Synagogue Music of the
East European Community.
Although the May 8 show, The
Best of Broadway, isn't billed as a
performance of Jewish music, it
includes works by most of the
Jewish luminaries of 20th-century
musical theater. Among the Jewish
composers on the program are
Irving Berlin, Jerry Herman, Frank
Loesser, Leonard Bernstein and Jule
Styne. Also included will be the
music of Cole Porter and Andrew
Lloyd Weber. Concertgoers will hear
familiar melodies from Guys And
Dolls, Annie Get Your Gun, Camelot,
Gypsy and other classic shows.
In the Temple Israel tradition, the
1:30 p.m. performance is dedicated
to senior citizens, with groups being
bused in from various sites.
The 7 p.m. show is a fund-raiser
for an Israeli family adopted by the
synagogue's fourth-graders through
the Mishpachah Achat (One Family)
program, which assists victims of
terrorism in the Jewish state. ❑
Tickets for the 7 p.m. concert on
Thursday, May 8, are $18. Call
