I am living in Vienna, Austria and am trying desperately to find Latvian language instruction in my city, or a private tutor. Anyone reading this that can help me. I would be appreciative. Paldies!

John, I've found out that a few years ago the "Volkshochschule Brigittenau" offered Latvian language courses. Contact anmeldung@vhs-brigittenau.at for more information. Otherwise I suggest you contact the Latvian Embassy in Vienna or Nilss Silkalns silkalns@gmail.com. He is a Latvian living in Innsbruck - maybe he can help in some way.

Sveiki! Man ir draugi (runājoši angļu valodā, bet ar pamatzināšanām latviešu valodā), kas vēlas apgūt latviešu valodu patstāvīgi. Vai Jūs, lūdzu, varat ieteikt kādu labu grāmatu, mācību materiālus latviešu valodas apguvei?

The dates for the Baltic Studies Summer Institute at UCLA during the summer of 2008 are June 23 to August 15. Introductory Language classes meet 4 hours a day, 5 days a week. There are extensive extra-curricular activities such as films, lectures, visits with local artists, and opportunities to participate in the cultural life of local Latvian, Lithuanian and Estonian society. I am scheduled to teach the Introductory Latvian course, so feel free to contact me for more information.

Aggressive tempo of ethnic trance marks third album by Auļi
Drum and bagpipe ensemble Auļi occupies a particular niche not just in Latvian music, but in world music in general. Combining drums and bagpipes might not have been the most logical decision, but Auļi has found success and fame for its style and performances.

Despite 25 years of making music, Bumerangs has just two albums
Bumerangs, from the northern Latvian city of Valka, has long been a Latvian schlager music institution. Celebrating its 25th anniversary in December 2011, the band has been one of the hardest working—playing, in some years, hundreds of concerts, and entertaining audiences not just in Latvia, but elsewhere in the world.
