----- it should be noted that the organization was officially called "Kraft
durch Freude" (Power through Joy), and it was a National Socialist culture
promoter. For instance, the Royal Danish Ballet gave guest performances in
Berlin on 19 and 20 March, 1938. So, if you search for recordings, the
precise name is essential, rather than the phonetic transcription.
Kind regards,
George
