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 iill 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 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.

Opera House: Rossini: La Cenerentola – Cinderella

The Orchestra of the Royal Opera House

Carlo Rizzi, Conductor

Larmore, Gimenez, Rizzi, Quilico, Scarabelli, Polverelli

A timely and universal tale about the young Cinderella (Larmore) trying to find her true love. Rossini‘s setting of the story is filled with jaunty, lyrical and challenging music. With a few exceptions, mezzo sopranos are usually cast in pants roles or some type of secondary role, but Rossini chose this voice type to shine brightly and beautifully. It might have the most joyous ending in all operatic repertoire. (3 hrs.)
