German Music Professor. By 1890 Professor Lueben had set up as a music instructor in a space at 1323 2nd Avenue and by 1895 he had partnered with a violinist, Professor J. F. Langer. Their Langer & Lueben's Band joined Seattle's Zither Club and the Arion Singing Society in presenting a show at the Halle on July 23 -- just as they would again in 1896 with Lueben's young daughter Lilly (b. 1886) playing in a violin trio, the Seattle Liederkranz, and the Turner Singing Society. It can fairly well be presumed that in 1902 Lueben also played some role in organizing the Northwest's first of many Sängerfests (German song festivals) that brought choirs to Seattle from Portland, Spokane, Tacoma, Bellingham, and Everett.
