Mein Ganzes Herz: Concert

Fritz Löhner-Beda? Never heard! His lyrics were and are on everyone's lips, e.g. E.g. “Bananas of all things”, written for Josephine Baker and also very popular in the GDR era, or “In the bar at the crocodile”, which he wrote for the Comedian Harmonists. The hit "You black gypsy" was written for Renate Müller, and he dedicated "Your is my whole heart" and "Friends, life is worth living" to his friend Richard Tauber. Franz Lehar set both texts to music in his operettas “The Land of Smiles” and “Giuditta”, for which Fritz Löhner-Beda wrote the libretti.

He was what was then called a lady's darling and would now be called a playboy. He loved partying, joking around, was sporty. Nothing and nobody was safe from his joke. Fritz Löhner-Beda became rich. He married a beautiful woman, and because he loved life and had the money, he bought a small castle in Bad Ischl for his small family. But then the Nazis came to power in Austria and the chauffeur Löhner-Bedas arrested his boss. He came first to Dachau, then to Buchenwald (where he wrote the lyrics to the Buchenwald song) and finally to Auschwitz. He was murdered there in 1942, his family a little later. Not only himself, but also the memory of him was erased. This evening is intended to commemorate Fritz Löhner-Beda,

English

Fritz Löhner-Beda? Nie gehört! Dabei waren und sind seine Liedtexte in aller Munde, so z. B. „Ausgerechnet Bananen“, geschrieben für Josephine Baker und auch zu DDR-Zeiten sehr beliebt, oder „In der Bar zum Krokodil“, das er für die Comedian Harmonists textete. Der Schlager „Du schwarzer Zigeuner“ entstand für Renate Müller, seinem Freund Richard Tauber widmete er „Dein ist mein ganzes Herz“ und „Freunde, das Leben ist lebenswert“. Beide Texte vertonte Franz Lehar in seinen Operetten „Das Land des Lächelns“ und „Giuditta“, für die Fritz Löhner-Beda die Libretti schrieb.

Er war, was man damals einen Frauenliebling nannte und heute einen Playboy nennen würde. Er liebte Party, den Jux, war sportlich. Nichts und niemand war vor seinem Witz sicher. Fritz Löhner-Beda wurde reich. Er heiratete eine schöne Frau, und weil er das Leben liebte und das Geld dazu hatte, kaufte er für seine kleine Familie ein Schlösschen in Bad Ischl. Doch dann kamen die Nazis auch in Österreich an die Macht und der Chauffeur Löhner-Bedas verhaftete seinen Chef. Der kam zunächst nach Dachau, dann nach Buchenwald (wo er den Text des Buchenwald-Liedes schrieb) und schließlich nach Auschwitz. Dort wurde er 1942 ermordet, seine Familie wenig später. Nicht nur er selbst, sondern auch die Erinnerung an ihn wurde ausgelöscht. Dieser Abend soll an Fritz Löhner-Beda erinnern, ihn in abgründig-humoristischer Form dem Ver­gessen entreißen und ihn mit dem ihm eigenen Sprachwitz, Sarkasmus und mit ganz viel Musik würdigen.
