BREGENZ, Austria, July 21 - The Bregenz Festival will make footage available to television stations for the purpose of media coverage of the festival.

In addition the TV material includes interviews and clips from the new James Bond movie Quantum of Solace, some sequences of which were shot on the spectacular opera set on Lake Constance in May.
