Spanish Mexican teacher
by Silviaflores
Hi!
My name is Silvia, I´m 32 years old.
I´m gonna be in Bregenz in two months with my boyfriend, he already has a job but I´d like to offer my self as teacher, I´ve got experience teaching and maybe that can be an option to do something in my free time. Do you know where can I look for teachers wanted?
thank´s a lot.

Hi Silvia,
maybe at the Volkshochschule (adult education center):

otherwise you can insert an advertisement in local newspaper: Vorarlberger Nachrichten
Good luck!

Hi Silver,
Not sure if you are looking to become a Spanish teacher or just want to get a job at teaching oversea. I met someone name Vanessa Lurie at a personal growth & development seminar and her company is looking to provide room & board for teachers who are willing to travel oversea to teach. Here is her contact info:
718-833-3355
Best luck,

Travel Tips for Bregenz
Safety precautions at the lakeside stage
by Nemorino
Since the stage is completely surrounded by water, there is always the possibility that one of the hundreds of people involved in the production might fall in.
Of course they all have to know how to swim. I don't know if there is actually a swimming test, but in 2002 I was told that one of the singers had to take swimming lessons before she was allowed to set foot on the stage.
As a precaution, though, at least two trained and fully equipped divers are posted on the shore throughout each performance. Because I was sitting in the corner seat in the first row in the lower left hand corner one night, I was able to get this picture of one of the divers getting herself and her equipment into place for the evening.
The anvil chorus
by Nemorino
At the beginning of the second act the gypsies sing their famous anvil chorus. In the Bregenz production they don't beat on their anvils but on the fence that keeps them out of the castle/refinery, the seat of wealth and power.
As in all the choral scenes at Bregenz, the people in the on-stage chorus are trained singers and are really singing Verdi's music, but their voices aren't being amplified. What we hear over the BOA (Bregenz Open Acoustics) sound system are the voices of the Moscow Chamber Chorus and the Bregenz Festival Chorus, who are singing simultaneously down in the indoor festival hall under the grandstand.
I took this photo on my second night, from my category V seat in the upper right-hand corner of the grandstand.
Manrico and Leonora
by Nemorino
Just as they are about to get married, Manrico learns that Azucena is a prisoner in Count Luna's castle. Only now does Leonora realize that the gypsy woman is Manrico's mother.
He again rallies his troops and storms off to save her, leaving Leonora behind. As he leaves he sings his famous and stirring stretta which most tenors try to finish off with a high C, if they can do it. It isn't actually in the score, but legend has it that one of the first Manricos got so carried away by the music that he inserted the high C by mistake, and Verdi allowed it to stay.
End of the evening
by Nemorino
After the singers and supernumeraries have taken their bows and left the stage, the diver who has been on standby the whole evening gathers up her equipment and climbs up the ladder.
Fortunately nobody fell into the water tonight, but she was there just in case.
