Heino's Return to the Stage: Emotional Tribute to His Wife
Following a hitch in his plans, iconic German singer Heino will soon hit the stage again. His church concert tour, initially postponed due to the demise of his beloved wife Hannelore Kramm, has been rescheduled. The shows, now set to include cities across Germany, Austria, and Belgium, will serve as a heartfelt tribute to Hannelore.
The Original Plans and Emotional Impact
The first concert in the tour was initially scheduled for November 17 in Mönchengladbach, just two days after Hannelore's funeral. The tour, dubbed "Die Himmel rühmen" (Praise the heavens), was meant to visit 23 cities. However, after a meeting with his manager, Helmut Werner, Heino decided to perform at the Kreuzkirche in Dresden on November 24 instead. This concert would mark a significant emotional milestone for the 84-year-old artist, who felt compelled to return to the stage to honor his wife's memory and connect with his fans.
"She would have wanted him to continue singing"
According to Helmut Werner, the first concert in Dresden will be particularly emotional for Heino. "He really wants to return to the stage because Hannelore would have wanted him to continue singing," Werner shared in a statement to a renowned newspaper. The performances were also expected to provide comfort and solace to the musician, who was grappling with his immeasurable grief.
Heino's Future Concerts
As things stand, the tour will include concerts at the following locations:
- December 2 in Hausham, Bavaria
- December 8 in Frauenkirchen, Austria
- December 10 in Graz, Austria
- December 16 in Bad Oeynhausen, North Rhine-Westphalia
- December 17 in St. Vith, Belgium
- January 21 in Görlitz, Saxony
Hannelore Kramm's Farewell
Kramm, who passed away on November 8 at the age of 81, left a lasting impact on the music scene and in Heino's heart. Following her demise, the singer expressed his profound grief on his website. The intimate funeral ceremony took place in Kitzbühel, and friends were promised a larger church service to bid farewell to Hannelore next year.
Heino and Hannelore's Love Story
The couple met at the Miss Austria competition in Kitzbühel in 1972 and eventually tied the knot in 1979. Hannelore proved instrumental in shaping Heino's spiritual journey, playing a pivotal role in the first church tour in 2011. Her influence extended beyond religion and music, helping Heino navigate the struggles of his personal and professional life.
In the Face of Grief, Heino Finds Solace in Music
As Heino embarks on a new chapter of his life following His wife's passing, he finds solace in music. Pop, a genre that Heino and Hannelore both adored, will form the backbone of the "Die Himmel rühmen" tour. This emotional tribute to Hannelore promises to keep their love story alive, immortalizing their bond in the hearts of their fans.
