From: Berry Kercheval <kerch@lll-tis-b> I can think of several more Honest-to Verdi SF operas. Janacek did one called "The Adventures of Mr. Broucek" in which Mr. Broucek goes to the moon; I have sung in a production of this. Also, when I was an undergrad at UC Riverside, one of the Grad students in the Music department did an adaptation of "The Martian Chronicles" -- I forget her name but can look it up if anyone is really interested. Weber wrote one called something like "the Bobolinks",A I know little more than the fact that the score is one of the few "serious" musical works to call for a theremin. -berry Kercheval kerch@lll-tisb.ARPA or berry@zehntel.UUCP
