LISTED TIMES ARE GMT

A Word About Timings

All timings are listed in both Greenwich Mean Time and Eastern Daylight Time. Europe and North America are both 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. In UK, Ireland and Portugal add one (1) hour to GMT. In most of the rest of Europe add one (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.

	RADIO OESTERREICH INTERNATIONAL Vienna, AUSTRIA		192K MP3 [occasionally skips material in transmission]			schedule
	1205 8:05AM	SPECIAL PROGRAM: "Verlorene Schmuckstücke" Vor allem romantische Lieder aus Frankreich in Neuaufnahmen. "Bijoux perdus" betitelt die Koloratursopranistin Jodie Devos ihr jüngstes Recital, das Kuriositäten von Adam bis Halévy wieder ans Licht bringt. Warum nicht diesen Titel als Motto nehmen? 333 Einzelstücke enthält eine Kollektion sämlticher "mélodies" von Jules Massenet, Dauer insgesamt: 15 Stunden! Wer hätte geahnt, dass Massenet auch zu diesem Genre derart üppig beigetragen hat? Das vollständige Vokal-Oeuvre von Henri Duparc ist in nur einer Stunde durchgehört, aber weit stärkere Nachwirkung ausgelöst. Von Hector Berlioz hat Michael Spyres "Les nuits d'été" in Tenor-Orchesterfassung eingesungen, während Spyres' lyrischer Fachkollege Cyrille Dubois in "So romantique!" sich in die Ohren Schmeichelndes gar von Théodore Dubois und Louis Clapisson zusammengetragen hat. Mit einer eine ganze Corona von Solostimmen aufbietenden Sammlung "Operettes des années folles" wird dann das 20.Jahrhundert erreicht.

The story concerns a selfish hero who lives to regret his blasé rejection of a young woman's love and his careless incitement of a fatal duel with his best friend. Performers: Eugene Onegin: Audun Iversen. Larina: Liliana Nikiteanu. Tatiana: Svetlana Aksenova. Vladimir Lenski: Alexei Neklyudov. Olga: Victoria Karkacheva. Filipievna: Elena Zilio.
