LISTED TIMES ARE GMT

A Word About Timings

All timings are listed in both Greenwich Mean Time and Eastern Daylight Time. Both Europe and North America is 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 the United States, 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 and eight (8) hours for Alaska, and nine (9) hours for Hawaii. In UK and Portugal add one (1) hour and in most of Europe add two (2) hours (some Eastern European countries are now three (3) hours ahead of GMT). In the Southern Hemisphere, Australia and New Zealand are now on Daylight Time (Australia is 11 hours ahead of GMT; New Zealand is 13 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.

	1406 9:06AM	Apropos Oper (Starts at 1306/8:06AM): mit Michael Blees. Mirella Freni in Wien - eine Hommage zum 75. Geburtstag der Sopranistin Mit ihrer Gestaltung der Mimi in Puccinis "La Bohème" hat sie bis heute gültige Maßstäbe gesetzt - und mit dieser Rolle hat sie sich auch 1963 in die Herzen des Wiener Publikums gesungen. Über 30 Jahre sollte die Karriere von Mirella Freni an der Wiener Staatsoper währen, ein Haus, in dem sie stets als besonderer Publikumsliebling gefeiert wurde. Abseits der Mimi hat Mirella Freni auch ihre berühmten italienischen Rollen wie Elisabetta in "Don Carlo", Desdemona in "Otello", Liu in "Turandot" und Amelia in "Simon Boccanegra" in Wien gesungen - und immer wieder begeisterte sie mit dem Wohlklang und der technischen Souveränität ihres Soprans, an dem die fortschreitenden Jahre ihrer langen Karriere scheinbar unbemerkt vorbeigingen. So konnte sie - nicht nur Wien - ihr Publikum auch überraschen, als sie, bereits jenseits der 50 und in einem Alter, in dem sich manche ihrer Kolleginnen schon zurückziehen bzw. ihr Repertoire reduzieren, neue, für eine Sängerin aus Italien ungewöhnliche Partien übernahm: 1988 war Mirella Freni eine umjubelte Tatjana in "Eugen Onegin" und eine weitere russische Tschaikowsky-Partie sollte 1992 folgen: eine mit üppigem Wohllaut und dramatischer Kraft gesungene Lisa in "Pique Dame". Mirella Freni - eine außergewöhnliche Künstlerin mit einer singulären Stimme: bei der MIDEM in Cannes wurde sie im Jänner für ihr Lebenswerk ausgezeichnet. (1 hr., 24 min.)

Along with Puccini's Manon Lescaut, it's one of two operatic versions of the same story. Both dramas have long been part of opera's standard rep, and while it's hard to outshine Puccini when it comes to tragic romance, Massenet may just have done it. (3 hrs., 30 min.)

	1800 1:00PM	Sunday Afternoon at the Opera: Charpentier, David et Jonathas. The influence of the Italian immigrant composer Jean Baptiste Lully was so overwhelming upon the Royal French court that no native born French composer in the reign of Louis XIV could get an opera of his own performed before the king. Only after Lully died in 1687 did the field become open once again to French opera composers of merit. One of the best of them, Mark Antoine Charpentier (1643 - 1704), wrote a Lullian-style opera on a Biblical subject for performance at the Jesuit college in Paris, where he was musical director. This was David et Jonathas (1688), which was intended as a special Lenten entertainment for his churchly patrons. It is the only surviving example of "sacred lyric tragedy" from the era of the Sun King. The one existing copy of the score for David et Jonathas is corrupt, with a lot of transcribing mistakes and actual gaps running into many bars of music. Michel Corboz, a pioneer in the authentic recreation of baroque music, painstakingly reconstructed David et Jonathas for a staged revival of the work by Opera de Lyon in 1981. Corboz conducts the English Bach Festival Baroque Orchestra and a cast of French singers, as recorded for the French Erato label. Erato made this recording available again in CD format on two silver discs in its "Libretto" series. I last broadcast David et Jonathas on Sunday, March 14, 1993. (3 hrs., 30 min.)

	2100 4:00PM	Metropolitan Opera: Well-known as a champion of Verdi's early works, the conductor Riccardo Muti makes his long-awaited Met debut with this remarkable opera, Attila, which is being performed for the first time at the Metropolitan Opera. The story of Attila explores a pivotal moment in history - the collapse of the Roman Empire under attacks from the 'barbarians' led by Attila. The demanding title role is sung here by the young Russian bass Ildar Abrazakov. Attila is a ruthless but honourable leader who falls in love with one of his conquests, the Italian slave Odabella, sung by the soprano Violeta Urmana. She, in turn, seeks revenge on Attila because he killed her father. The tenor Ramón Vargas is her lover, Foresto, who rallies the defeated Italian people and Carlos Alvarez is the General Ezio, a brilliant but corrupt soldier. Veteran bass Samuel Ramey, himself a spectacular Attila in the 1970s and 80s, makes a cameo appearance as Leone (Pope Leo 1). One of the opera's most stirring moments is the historical scene between Attila and the Pope (who convinced the invader to spare Rome). It is a fascinating story of the clash of religions, politics and love with a score full of the youthful vitality and magnificent spirit of the 33-year old musical genius. Attila: Ilda Abrazakov (bass) Odabella: Violeta Urmana (soprano) Ezio: Giovanni Meoni (baritone) Foresto: Ramón Vargas (tenor) Uldino: Russell Thomas (tenor) Leone: Samuel Ramey (bass) Metropolitan Opera Chorus and Orchestra Riccardo Muti (conductor) (4 hrs)

Still, its tragic, cross-cultural story has particular resonance in today's world, and this production from Montpellier features a stirring performance with the exciting young soprano Ermonela Jaho in the title role. (3 hrs., 30 min.)
