Houston Grand Opera
Broadcasts by the Houston Grand Opera continue on KUAT-FM this Saturday, November 14th at noon with a performance of Rigoletto by Giuseppe Verdi with a libretto by Francesco Maria Piave. The opera will be sung in Italian and the approximate running time will be two hours and fifty minutes.
