STROHMEYER, Carl, a bass singer—then a Kammersänger at Weimar—who sang in a festival at Frankenhausen in June 1810, and is mentioned by Spohr for the extraordinary compass of his voice (see Spohr's 'Selbst-biographie,' i. 142). He was born in the Stollberg district in 1870 [App. p.797 "1780"], and was employed successively at Gotha and at Weimar, at which latter place he died, Nov. 11, 1845.
