On March 19, 22, 24, and 27, the Cleveland Orchestra will complete its three-year presentation of the great Mozart-Da Ponte operas. Don Giovanni is one of Mozart’s towering masterpieces, a work that probes the turbulent and troublesome depths of the human heart through music of breath-taking power and beauty. This potent combination led 19th Century thinkers to consider Don Giovanni an early epitome of the ideals of Romanticism. All are welcome for an evening of exploring one of Mozart’s great masterpieces!

INNOVATIVE CURRENTS IN CONTEMPORARY JEWISH THOUGHT: FRANZ ROSENZWEIG, EMMANUEL LEVINAS, MICHAEL FISHBANE – Led by Rabbi Klein
Contemporary Jewish thinkers, like their significant non-Jewish European and American counterparts, have mounted a challenge to the world view of the Enlightenment, a view that privileges reason, universalism, and the idea of a common humanity.
In these three sessions we will explore the path-breaking writings of Franz Rosenzweig, Emmanuel Levinas, and Michael Fishbane. We will read and discuss Rosenzweig’s work on “The New Thinking,” excerpts from Levinas’s Nine Talmudic Readings and other writings, and passages from Fishbane’s recent Sacred Attunement.
