Jewish Community Center in West Bloomfield. "This area has wonderful cul- tural opportunities and I hope to be involved with the Michigan Opera Theater and the DSO (Detroit Symphony Orchestra);' Lauren Gross said. Her husband already is involved there. "I spoke and sang on a pre- concert lecture talk about chazzanut and klezmer during the world pre- miere of Wlad Marhulets' Concerto for Klezmer Clarinet," he said. "I feel as if whatever I do, I am truly a shaliach tzibbur, a repre- sentative of the synagogue to the community. Being involved in the greater community not only provides personal and professional growth, but also sheds a good light on Adat Shalom." Already he has forged a rela- tionship with local cantors from Conservative and Reform move- ments. Another hope is one that combines both the cantor's immersion in music and a passion for baseball. "I look forward to one day sing- ing the national anthem at a Detroit Tigers game,' Gross said. He already is looking forward, planning a Yom HaShoah event for next spring that will include a large conglomerate of Jewish and non- Jewish choirs. Even with a hectic schedule throughout the community, Gross said, "I can't wait to wake up in the morning to go to the shut" The family is enjoying other aspects of their life as well. "What drew us to this area was the warmth and friendliness of the Adat Shalom community" Lauren Gross said. "Detroit is now our home and Adat Shalom has helped to make our tran- sition very smooth and easy." Adds Daniel Gross, "We love it here. We are very happy with our decision. It's a great shidduch [match]." 0 "An Evening of Song" will take place at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, May 13, at Adat Shalom Synagogue, Farmington Hills. The event will include the cantor's installation and a dairy dessert reception. To make a reservation by May 7, call (248) 851-5100 or send an e-mail to: info@adatshalom.org . There is no charge.
