Lotte Lenya
Biography
Known for her definitive interpretations of her husband Kurt Weill's songs, the singer and actress Lotte Lenya enjoyed a late-career resurgence after performing in the 1956 Off-Broadway debut of THE THREEPENNY OPERA as well as the original 1966 Broadway production of CABARET. Appearing in the premieres of all the major Brecht-Weill collaborations, including DIE DREIGROSCHENOPER (THREEPENNY OPERA), RISE AND FALL OF THE CITY OF MAHAGONNY, and SEVEN DEADLY SINS. Lenya later participated in the definitive Columbia Masterworks recordings of these scores in the mid-'50s. Her 1955 Masterworks LP SINGS BERLIN THEATRE SONGS OF KURT WEILL is still considered the benchmark by which all subsequent interpretations of Weill are measured.
