In addition, she credits Chabad of Southampton for inspiring her to remember. She spends weekends at her home in Sag Harbor, L.I., and attends services regularly at Chabad. When asked if she carries some of her father's religiosity, she says that she hopes so. She explains that for Leon, who always had a prayer book nearby, religion became all-consuming in America, when he no longer had the other pieces of his old life, like the cafes and casinos. Now, she can't bear the idea of not going to shut on Shabbat no matter where she is; she meets her husband afterward. She also interviewed male friends "who seemed seasoned and interest- ing" to understand her father's ways with women. Two of her three siblings were helpful, in particular her brother Cesar, who, to her surprise, kept all sorts of family records including the canceled checks Leon sent to the many orphanages and schools he asked to pray for his daughter's recovery. Cesar came to her first reading dressed in a white suit. Blues Brother from page 53 with different teachers and moved on to an electric guitar when I was 10:' Ari's appearances in the usually adult nightspots came after his par- ents, Andrea and Robert Teitel of West Bloomfield, read articles about oppor- tunities for young newcomers to test their talents. During those times at clubs, includ- ing Nancy Whiskey's in Detroit and Club Bart in Ferndale, Ari got to know the other two band members, and they decided to combine their instrumental skills. A June booking took the trio to AJ's Cafe in Ferndale. Ari's talents have brought him invitations to jam with well-known local bands, such as Howling Diablos, Bump and Nightengale. One of his most exciting experiences was being asked to appear with Robert Randolph and the Family Band at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor, and that is cap- tured on the MySpace Web site. "There have been lots of adult musi- cians who wanted to work with Ari on a regular basis, but my wife and I decided it would be better for him to be part of a band with musicians his age Robert Teitel says. Bookings at Pontiac's Arts, Beats & Eats, held over Labor Day weekend, and Detroit's Motown Winter Blast came through Jonathan Witz, who pro- duces both events. Witz got to know Ari and his talents at Roeper, where the local producer is involved in par- ent activities. "I practice a lot if I find something awesome that I really want to play',' says Ari, who has taken along a guitar and mandolin to Camp Tanuga in Kalkaska this summer. "Sometimes, I feel I've just had too much and don't practice While Ari's parents have steered away from playing instruments, his late great-grandmother, Ethel Toby, was a concert pianist. Ari's brother, Levi, 11, takes piano lessons but has more interest in theater and dance. The showmanship of Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, John Hiatt and the Police serves as inspiration for Ari, but he has no intention of working as a pro- fessional musician as an adult. His career goal is to become a doctor. Art, who also enjoys playing bas- ketball and hanging out with friends, can look back on the celebration of his 13th birthday as another way to celebrate his musical flair. After his bar mitzvah service at Temple Israel, he was joined by his friends for a party at the Club Inferno in Walled Lake. "We mostly played our usual music;' says Art, owner of five guitars and a mandolin and student of Rob Bourassa, who directs music programs at Greenfield Village. "We also played a hora."
