LISTED TIMES ARE GMT

A Word About Timings

All timings are listed in both Greenwich Mean Time and Eastern Daylight Time. Europe is still on Standard Time. 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 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. The UK, Ireland and Portugal are all in GMT. In most of the rest of Europe add one (1) hours (some Eastern European countries are two (2) hours ahead of GMT). In the Southern Hemisphere, Australia and New Zealand are 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.

Opera Night: Metropolitan Opera New York presents Puccini's La Bohème
With its enchanting setting and spellbinding score, the world's most popular opera is as timeless as it is heartbreaking. Franco Zeffirelli's production brings 19th-century Paris to the Met stage as Puccini's young friends and lovers navigate the joy and struggle of bohemian life. Sopranos Juliana Grigoryan is the feeble seamstress Mimì, opposite tenor Stephen Costello as the ardent poet Rodolfo. Daniele Rustioni conducts the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and Chorus in tonight's live broadcast. (3 hrs.)
