Paul Glitsch
Paul Glitsch was a member of the Grand Ducal Court Theatre chorus in Weimar, creating one of the four Minnesingers in the premiere of Strauss's Guntram in 1894. He was still a second bass in the same chorus a quarter-century later, in 1919.

Confirms him as a second bass in the same chorus twenty-five years after the premiere, alongside Bruno Weyrauch and, by then, Fritz Knöfler, his fellow Minnesingers of 1894. A Lilli Glitsch also sings in the chorus's alto section that year, possibly a relation.
