Life

Edmund Gleede was born as the son of the businessman Edmund Gleede Senior and his wife, the accountant Adelheid (born “from Hinüber”) as the first of two sons. After studying theater studies , musicology , German studies (directing class August Everding ) and art history at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich , he went to the Staatstheater Kassel as assistant director and dramaturge in 1970 .

From 1972 to 1974 he was dramaturge at the Frankfurt Opera and worked with Christoph von Dohnányi , John Neumeier , Oscar Fritz Schuh , Filippo Sanjust , Peter Lehmann , Jean-Pierre Ponnelle and Hans Neugebauer .

Due to a change of artistic director, he moved to Pina Bausch as a dramaturge at the Wuppertaler Bühnen . After another change of artistic director, he went to the Deutsche Oper Berlin as a dramaturge and director under the direction of Siegfried Palm .

After successfully collaborating with his mentor August Everding on the new production of “The Merry Widow” (with Gwyneth Jones and René Kollo ), Everding brought him to the Bavarian State Opera as ballet director . After five years of successful ballet management with 124 sold out ballet performances in five Munich theaters per season ( National Theater Munich , Cuvilliés Theater , Marstall Munich Theater, Prinzregententheater , Deutsches Theater Munich ), Gleede left the Bavarian State Opera at his own request because of differences of opinion with the State Opera Director Wolfgang Sawallisch .

After that, after several years as a freelance director , Gleede became opera director in Halle (Saale) . After restructuring the house, Gleede left the city of Halle and became the acting director of the Munich boulevard theater Theater Die Kleine Freiheit .

Gleede then worked as a senior director for “Symphonic Workshops Toronto” and for the “Pancomedia Theater”, Munich.
