Dear Friends,

My friend and his wife work for this opera house in Oldenburg, Germany (about an hour West of Hamburg by train).  The open positions pay a living wage (they would actually be government employees), and have a yearly contract (renewable as long as you do a good job!).  If you know of any men who might be interested in relocating for a real singing job, please pass this along.
