2:00 The Sunday Feature

Berlin Without Walls

Inside the Philharmonic

Featured segments focus on the members of the orchestra and their unique sound, the Philharmonic's legendary conductors, and the Berliner Philharmonie concert hall. We also hear the extraordinary story of Helmut Stern, a Jewish musician forced to leave Germany at the beginning of World War II, who returned after the war to join the Berlin Philharmonic under Herbert von Karajan (WNYC)

3:00 Opera on Sunday

Metropolitan Opera Season

Twenty-two operas from New York's Metropolitan Opera House

(8) VERDI: Stiffelio, an opera in three acts

Probably the most overlooked of Verdi's operas, this opera is also probably his most modern in that it deals with a genuinely human, uniquely situated context avoiding stock characters and other typical operatic material. Indeed, the idea of adultery in the home of a Protestant minister cut across the cultural and social grain of the predominantly Catholic nation of Italy

Stiffelio............................ José Cura

Lina................................. Julianna Di Giacomo

Stankar............................ Andrzej Dobber

Raffaele von Leuthold...... Michael Fabiano

Jorg................................. Phillip Ens

Dorotea........................... Jennifer Check
