About André Previn

Artist Biography

André Previn, ein äußerst begabter Musiker des 20. Jahrhunderts, kam 1929 als Kind einer jüdischen Familie in Berlin zur Welt. Das Wunderkind am Klavier wurde im Alter von sechs Jahren in das Berliner Konservatorium aufgenommen, bevor sein Vater und die Familie aus Nazi-Deutschland nach Los Angeles flohen. Dort bekam Previn schließlich einen Job bei MGM als Hauskomponist und Dirigent. Seine Arrangements für die Filmmusicals „Irma la Douce“ und „My Fair Lady“ wurden mit dem Oscar® ausgezeichnet, während die Soundtracks zu „Stadt in Angst“ und „Elmer Gantry“ zu seinen Originalkompositionen gehörten. Obwohl er in Hollywood schnell Erfolge feiern konnte, schlug Previn bald eine neue Richtung ein: Er entwickelte parallele Karrieren als Jazzpianist und klassischer Dirigent. Nach 1968 erlangte er in neun Jahren mit dem London Symphony Orchestra Weltruhm und erwarb sich einen hervorragenden Ruf im Bereich der spätromantischen und englischen Musik. Auch dem Fernsehen war Previn nicht abgeneigt: Er ging ganz in seinem Element auf, als er mehrere Jahre lang die „André Previn’s Music Night“ auf BBC One moderierte und später in den USA „Previn and the Pittsburgh“ mit dem Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. In den zwei Jahrzehnten vor seinem Tod im Jahr 2019 komponierte er zwei Opern, „A Streetcar Named Desire“ und „Brief Encounter“ sowie ein Violinkonzert für seine fünfte Frau, die deutsche Geigerin Anne-Sophie Mutter.
