I am trying to find any information on how Heinrich Baermann escaped being a POW from the Battle at Jena in 1804, to his court appointment as principle clarinet in Munich in 1807.
How did he escape? Who helped? Where did he hide, stay? How did he change his status from criminal as a POW at the Battle of Jena to gain favor with the French approved king in Munich? How did he survive until that appointment with the orchestra?
Was Joseph Berr involved?
Lastly, was he at the Battle of Jena as a gun firing soldier, or as his role as a regimental band leader?
Any info or corrections would be very helpful. If I could be pointed in the right dierction, this would help as well.
Thanks!
