Dear [firstname] [lastname],
Philharmonic Doctors Opera-friends,

This mail is very important! You should study EVERY detail precisely, please!!!
the order is not systematical....


In this mail there will be several contact persons for the different "standard requests".
one personal request: Please contact Wolfgang Ellenberger only if you have no other choice....


Watch our cast-list! http://www.pdo.name/2010/2010-cast-list.htm
See how we grow!
The only hurting area is Viola/Bratsche - we need another two of them!


ROOMING:
If you have a request for single rooms or if you come with partner and need double room. Let me know IN ADVANCE RIGHT NOW!
We cannot guarantee single rooms inside the guest-house, the guest-house cooperates with local hotels.
Possibly an external single room may cost up to 65 Euro per day.
PLEASE mail to WolfgangEllenberger.name [Those who have already said it all DONE!].
All room bookings are made through Wolfgang in cooperation with Jeunesse Musicale.
Sabine L. will help with the check-in. PLEASE try to bring the money for the room in cash.

Prices calculating for THREE DAYS IN THE GUEST HOUSE with FULL PENSION (all meals) PER DAY:
triple room 36 Euro
double room (give information if you want to stay with a certain person in advance please!) 39 Euro

for the room keys you have to give an identity card as "guarantee" which you will get back after refund of key.


On  thursday 25th RIGHT AFTER DINNER at 19.30 hrs at the Stadthalle Weikersheim we expect the first highlight:
Anara El Ra is inside the ISIS knowledge and she will let us know about this central topic of the Magic Flute.
We could not have a better input for the understanding of the opera!
Visit her homepage www.Re-Harachte.de


TRANSPORT:
Please try to make car sharing using the cast-list which gives you contact to everybody!
Please send ALL transport requests to Nadia@PDO.name (if possible in German)!
Nadia will coordinate everything and in case contact me to find solutions.
PLEASE do NOT ask me, Wolfgang, for transport details - this function is completely delegated to Nadia.
(Nadia - se devi avere traduzione di e-mails basta avanzare da me, OK?)


We (Katja Krüger!) have offered the recitativo with Tamino and the speaker No. Z1-08b for all instruments INCLUDING the recitativo with text.
So it will be easier to be together with the recitativo-dialogue..... see under http://www.pdo.name/2010/Noten-Audio/bookletAudio.htm and scroll down to Z1-08b!


CHOIR: see http://www.pdo.name/2010/Noten-Audio/choir.htm
I am preparing training material!
Please check in the next days for more material. On Wednesday something will happen if not before.


Communication:

-You should PLEASE have your cell phone switched on at all times to be available. This can make a wonderful communication structure possible.
-Everybody should CHECK REHEARSAL PLAN in guest house (!) BEFORE BREAKFAST
-


Last meeting in phase02 the orchestra has asked me to show more "authority".
I tried hard to give more speed and drive and something moved on.
At the same time I assume that you will have the same excellent discipline and "INNER AUTHORITY" as last time.

Wolfgang (and other trainers) will be punctual
at each rehearsal.
No more delays as last time because administrative things will be distributed better.
I beg your pardon for previous delays.


We will have several tasks to distribute and search for volunteers/support
Please send an e-mail to Wolfgang and tell your availability for one of the open tasks, thank you!

-key holder of rehearsal room Gaertnerhaus (has to be there as earliest bird and latest night owl, can be divised)
-Photocopier with counter for machine
-morning/afternoon/evening each section each day one "right hand" for Wolfgang for immediate delegation of tasks to guarantee punctuality.
-two violin cases for donations after concert
-Ulrike program sheet for concert including BIG domain for more information on live-stream
-stage setup manager (check number of music stands/chairs, coordination of seat distribution)
-music sheets management (Katja Krüger)
-punctuality-police-man or -woman
-extra-rehearsal room distributor (all rooms out of regular rehearsal plan, make list/plan with all  rooms and handle options) - necessary?
-check-in of hotel rooms (Sabine L.)
-driver (Nadia Palermo)
-evening pub-organiser
-shopping specialist for urgent things (Paper, office etc.)
-rehearsal plan consulter (Otmar and Wolfgang) - "disponent"
-emergency manager
-information board manager (rehearsal plan guest house AND Gaertner-house)


Our concert will be on Sunday morning from 10.30 to 12.45 ca. since we could not get another hour for the
Wandelhalle  in Bad Mergentheim.

So I will organise a later lunch or at least lunch packets.
Hopefully we can keep the rooms until one hour after lunch for refreshing after the concert.

We plan to go through ALL MUSIC TITLES of Magic Flute from 10.30-12.45
lunch 13.45-14.15 and another afternoon rehearsal from 14.30-16.30.

RIGHT AFTER THE CONCERT the loading of instruments needs precise order.
Each function in this process has one responsible person from those participants who have a shorter travel.


Last meeting in November I did not insist on memberships of our beneficial association for the year 2009 which was nearly "done".
