Council races a formality The council races in the 33rd, 38th and 39th districts were mostly a formality for the three Democratic incumbents, who all easily retained their seats. David Yassky easily held onto the 33rd Council District, which includes DUMBO, Downtown Brooklyn, Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, Greenpoint and a section of Park Slope and Williamsburg. Earning 10,136 votes, or 89.8 percent, Yassky beat Repub- lican challenger Stella Harmatiuk, of Greenpoint, an 81 year old conservative who is anti-abortion and anti-death penalty and in favor or fingerprinting Medicaid patients.

MUSIC Lover boy “American Idol,” eat your heart out. Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts ups the ante with the Italian-American idol, Michael Amante, on Nov. 15. The dashing young tenor from Syracuse, pictured, will serenade audiences with arias and Broadway numbers to celebrate the opening of the Cen- ter’s 2003 Celebrities Series. Faith Prince, winner of a 1992 Tony Award for her work as Miss Adelaide in “Guys and Dolls,” is scheduled to share the bill. Amante, whose sur- name means “lover” in (718) 834-9350 The Brooklyn Papers’ essential guide to the Borough of Kings November 10, 2003 Italian, was discovered at Rao’s in East Harlem three years ago where he regularly performed. But it was at age 6 when he discovered his own voice — after “wowing the nuns” in a Catholic school play. In his teens, he discovered opera. But don’t expect a stodgy performance from this tenor. Before he turned to the classics, Amante sang “the killer hits of Kansas, Foreigner and Journey” for bands in high school, and the energy of rock music still infuses his performances today. Out of bounds Michael Amante and Faith Prince perform Nov. 15 at 8 pm at the Walt Whitman Theater on the campus of Brooklyn College, one block from BAMcinematek’s Austrian film series showcases mavericks the junction of Flatbush and Nostrand avenues.
