Ludwig Gruber (poet)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ludwig Gruber , the Ponzauner Wigg , (born August 15, 1922 in Niedernkirchen , Lower Bavaria , † December 10, 2005 there ) was a Bavarian Gstanzl singer and dialect poet.

Life

The Ponzauner Wigg was born as one of nine children on his parents' Ponzaunerhof , a listed farm near Hebertsfelden . In 1950 he took over his parents' farm, a typical Lower Bavarian mixed farm with dairy farming and his own forage production in fields and meadows. As a trained agricultural master, he was keen to improve small-scale animal husbandry and, in particular, to raise calves.

Dialect poet

The Ponzauner Wigg became known nationwide as a local poet when he hosted the opening of the Massings open-air museum in 1969 . In 1974 he published his first book Herzhaft g'sagt . Numerous other books followed. At an early age he drew attention to himself as a gstanzl singer at musicians' meetings, so-called Hoagascht ; later often at Roider Jackl's side . He also made commercials with him in the 1960s for concentrated feed for the BayWa agricultural cooperative. His poems are sometimes melancholy, but mostly cheerful, but always “straight forward”. Even the Bavarian Television spotted him - until shortly before his death, he was wearing his poems in the BR-television series Our country before. Bayerischer Rundfunk continues to broadcast poems by Ponzauner Wigg, presented by his son Ludwig Gruber , who works for the BR as editor of the notebook program .

Gunther Prunner (local home nurse of the community Pleiskirchen near Altötting) filmed the Lower Bavarian Christmas of the Ponzauner Wigg with members of the Pleiskirchen traditional costume club and several local music groups . Gunther Prunner reads the story - similar to Heinrich Waggerl at the Salzburg Advent Singing - and the amateur actors play the story.
