Career

Heinz Rudolf Kunze reflects on his life and music, his family, and his companions. With an engaging voice, he looks back: on a childhood and youth in the economic miracle, which wanted nothing to do with confronting the past, on the upheavals and breakthroughs of the vividly turbulent 1980s, and on the German zeitgeist of recent decades.

"Career" tells of successes, doubts, and soaring heights. And not least of all, it explores the power that music and literature can unleash.

"Compañero Heinz – over the decades, we have always stood side by side when it matters. Whether in the anti-nuclear movement, on the Loreley with Willy Brandt, against xenophobia, against Nazis, at Rock Against Right-Wing Violence, or as part of the peace movement. Heinz Rudolf has always taken on political responsibility as a singer. And together we will continue to push forward!"
Udo Lindenberg

"Unbridled creativity, an endless well of inspiration, and the courage to embrace new challenges – all of this characterizes Heinz and his artistic compass. Respect, Mr. Neighbor!"
Klaus Meine

"I love Heinz for the clarity of his words, for his memorable imagery, for his always surprising twists and wise thoughts. I love Heinz for his music, for the gift of his songs – and because he is a friend."
Reinhard Mey.
