M-D Opera -- on TV & at MDM18

Moby-Dick, the opera, will be broadcast on Boston's PBS station, WGBH, four times in the next week, as part of the Great Performances series. Check your local listings, as they say, but for Boson-area folks it's:
  • Friday, Nov. 1, 9 PM, channel 2
  • Saturday, Nov. 2, 2 AM, channel 44
  • Sunday, Nov. 3, 1:30 PM, channel 2
  • Monday, Nov. 4, 3 AM, channel 44
If you plan to attend the Marathon's kick-off lecture on Jan. 3 (2014), you'll want to check out this opera. The featured speaker will be its librettist, Gene Scheer.
