Then from 1727 till 1734, he attended the Anne School in Dresden. In 1742, he made an unsuccessful bid for the post of organist at the Frauenkirche, Dresden. On 26 February 1754, he became a trainee organist of Anne's Church, Dresden, then organist from August 1757. On 20 July 1760, Anne's Church was destroyed, and for the next nine years Fehre was organist at interim services at St. Bartholomew's Church and in the electoral Malersaal on the Ostra-Allee. On 8 October 1769, he was the organist to celebrate the inauguration of the newly built Anne's Church. He died, aged 54, in Dresden.
