Lutz Görner (born January 1, 1945 in Zwickau ) is a German reciter .

Life

Görner grew up in the Rhineland and was on stage as a student in extras and as a dancer in the Aachen City Theater. He initially wanted to become a theater director , studied theater studies , German , art history , philosophy and sociology in Cologne and attended drama school there . This was followed by activities on various German theaters as a stage worker, prop master , actor and director . For many years Görner organized himself politically in the DKP .

In the mid-1970s, Görner initially worked in Munich as a reciter of Heinrich Heine's works. In 1981 he undertook a tour through Germany with Tahsin İncirci under the title I love my country as a reciter of the works of Nâzım Hikmet . Until 1988 he worked closely with Ulrich Türk , who designed his programs and LPs musically. Programs like Goethe for All opened up city theaters and venues all over the world to him. Görner's interpretation of Heinrich Heine's poem Germany - A Winter Tale had its 1,000 performances in the Great Hall of the Bell in Bremen. Görner went on tour with programs such as Droste für alle , a Brecht program (musically accompanied by Oliver Steller, Dietmar Fuhr and Bernd Winterschladen) and about Friedrich Schiller's opium slumber and champagne rush (with Stefan Sell). From 1992 to 1999 Görner directed his own “recite theater” in Cologne.

Görner was represented on television from 1993 to 2010 by the 200-part series “Lyrik für alle”, a short spoken literary history of poetry from the baroque to the present day, which was broadcast every Sunday morning on 3sat.

Since 2012 Görner has been performing as part of the piano recitals he has staged and accompanied. These evenings are a mixture of literature and music by composers, mostly from the 19th century. So far, programs about Franz Liszt, Frédéric Chopin, Richard Wagner, Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert, Giacomo Meyerbeer, Robert Schumann as well as Italian music by Rossini, Donizetti, Bellini under the title An Italian Night have been created.

Lutz Görner lives in Oberbergischen near Cologne. His younger brother is the Berlin photographer Reinhard Görner .
