Footnote: The 12th German Singers' League (Deutsches Sängerbund) Festival at Breslau commemorated the 75th Anniversary of the founding of the organization in 1862. It was held from July 28 to August 1, 1937, with over 100,000 singers participating. It was the last and at the same time the most powerful rally of the Silesian Sängerbund under President Emil Fuchs (1883-1972), before the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939.
