LISTED TIMES ARE GMT

A Word About Timings

All timings are listed in both Greenwich Mean Time and Eastern Daylight Time. North America and Europe are now on Daylight Time. For those of you who live in other time zones, you will need to make a calculation to derive the time of an event where you live. In North America subtract four (4) hours (from GMT) for the Eastern Time Zone, five (5) hours for the Central Time Zone, and six (6) hours for the Mountain Time Zone. Subtract seven (7) hours for the Pacific Time Zone, eight (8) hours for Alaska, and nine (9) hours for Hawaii. UK, Ireland and Portugal add one (1) hour to GMT. In most of the rest of Europe add two (2) hours (some Eastern European countries are three (3) hours ahead of GMT). In the Southern Hemisphere, Australia and New Zealand are on Standard Time (Australia is 10 hours ahead of GMT; New Zealand is 12 hours ahead of GMT).

For those in the United States, it is useful to keep in mind that broadcasts in the evening hours often appear in the NEXT day's listings because they occur in the small hours in GMT time, which is our primary reference in the following listings.
For more information on time zone calculations, double click the time display on the lower right of your screen (if you are using a PC) to display the Time Zone tab, then click on the drop-down menu for a full list of time zones and their relationships to Greenwich Mean Time. You may also let the TIME CONVERTER do the calculations for you.

	1804 2:04PM	Opera (Starts at 1804/2:04PM): Miriways Oper in 3 Akten von Georg Philipp Telemann In Telemanns selten gespielter exotischer Oper "Miriways" (1728) glänzen die Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin und ein barockes Starensemble mit Sängern wie André Morsch in der Titelpartie. Was 1722 in Persien geschah, sorgt in europäischen Zeitungen für Schlagzeilen: M?r Wais, ein afghanischer Stammesfürst rebelliert gegen die persische Besatzung. Sein Nachfolger nimmt später die Hauptstadt Isfah?n ein. 1723 veröffentlicht ein schwedischer Offizier, der als Leibwächter M?r Wais' gedient haben will, die Biographie "Der Persianische Cromwell, oder Leben und Taten des Miriways". "Miriways" ist in aller Munde. Georg Philipp Telemann, Hamburgs "Director musices" mit viel Gespür für den Puls der Zeit, greift den Hype auf und lässt über den Stoff ein Opernlibretto schreiben. Auf die historischen Fakten nimmt das wenig Rücksicht, dafür erzählt es in attraktivem exotischem Setting von dynastischen Verwirrungen, Intrigen, Liebesbeziehungen und viel Herzschmerz. Das ist ganz nach dem Geschmack des orientbegeisterten Publikums des Barock. "Miriways" wurde 1728 an der Gänsemarktoper in Hamburg uraufgeführt. Nach fast drei Jahrhunderten hat Reinhard Goebel die Partitur aus den Archiven gezogen und 1992 in Magdeburg eine Wiederaufführung realisiert. Unter der Leitung des kanadischen Dirigenten Bernard Labadie ist die Oper 2017 beim Hamburger Telemann-Festival an ihren Entstehungsort zurückgekehrt und jetzt als Live-Mitschnitt zu erleben. Miriways: André Morsch, Bariton Sophi: Robin Johannsen, Sopran Bemira: Sophie Karthäuser, Sopran Nisibis: Lydia Teuscher, Sopran Murzah: Michael Nagy, Bariton Samischa: Marie-Claude Chappuis, Mezzosopran Zemir: Anett Fritsch, Sopran Geist / Scandor: Dominik Köninger, Bariton Gesandter: Paul McNamara, Tenor Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin, Leitung: Bernard Labadie (2 hrs., 56 min.)
