Sängerfest Success in Floresville


On 1.Mai, the Beethoven Männerchor hosted the 70th Deutsch-Texanischer Sängerbund konzert at the Floresville Event Center. Nearly one dozen clubs from across the state of Texas attended the Sängerfest!

Beethoven, founded in 1867, is the oldest German-heritage singing club west of the Mississippi. The continuation of events like this help preserve the heritage of German-Americans and keep the tradition alive.
