Biography
Udo Jürgens (1934–2014) was an Austrian composer, pianist, and singer and one of the most successful artists in German-language Schlager and chanson. Over more than five decades he wrote and sang hundreds of songs, including Griechischer Wein, Aber bitte mit Sahne, and the Eurovision winner Merci, Chérie. The jukebox musical Ich war noch niemals in New York (2007), named after one of his greatest hits, weaves his songs into a family comedy and became one of the most successful German-language musicals. Jürgens shaped the musical identity of several generations in the German-speaking world.
