Leipzig's first Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) festival was held in 1904 and continued on an irregular basis thereafter under various names. During the Third Reich period the Nazi's politicised the festival and attempted to raise Bach to the status of national hero. The 1935 event, the "22nd German Bach Festival" was held at the Gewandhaus. As well as performances of music by Bach and associated composers, the festivals usually included a musicological conference. The festivals were held at first triennially, then biennially, and since 1920 annually (with interruptions to the series during the two World Wars). More information can be found Here
