This is the main opera being presented fully staged as part of the SummerScape festival at the Fisher Center, Bard College, and will be live streamed on Wednesday 30 July at 2 pm Eastern, with a repeat stream on Saturday 2 August at 5 pm Eastern.
Details here:  https://fishercenter.bard.edu/events/dalibor/

There will also be a single performance of Martinu's Julietta, which will be live streamed on Sunday 17 August at 3 pm Eastern.  I think this is probably a concert performance.  https://fishercenter.bard.edu/events/bmf25-p11/

I've booked for both, as I have not heard/seen either opera performed live.  It is likely that at least Dalibor will be added eventually to the on-demand operas that are available on the Fisher Center's YouTube channel.

Anton Urspruch's "Das Unmoglichste von Allem" will be broadcast at 3 pm Eastern time today on WWFM.

I have been having internet problems and unfortunately missed this broadcast, and am wondering if anyone managed to record it.  I did look on RTVE but could not find the audio, although there are other Chapi works available.  I'm interested partly because I have heard Saioa Hernandez in other performances and liked what I heard.
Thanks!

This is being staged at Bard College's Summerscape.  Opening night was video-streamed live yesterday, and there will be one replayed stream on Wednesday 28 July (2 pm Eastern; 20h CET).  Tickets to view are $10.

I watched this live last night and I can see why the opera is rarely performed; it doesn't have the dramatic power of other, more successful works, and it is, I think, weighed down by Chausson's (unsuccessful) deWagnerisation of his music.  But this is as well staged as it might be (by Louisa Proske), and the singing is better than decent, so I do recommend it.

This is available to watch on demand via Arte:

Thank you so much!   

I tried tuning in but was having trouble with my internet connection and only managed to hear tantalizing bits...  If anyone was able to record this I'd be deeply grateful for a recording.

DFK has this available on demand at the moment:

Available on demand (I believe for just a week after the live broadcast) is yesterday's broadcast from Torino.  I have not yet listened to this but will find time in the next couple of days.
