Bertolt Brecht - Klaus Kinski singt und spricht Brecht

Klaus Kinski, born Klaus Günter Karl Nakszynski (18 October 1926 – 23 November 1991), was a German actor, director and writer.

He appeared in over 130 movies including: "A Time to Love and a Time to Die" (1958), "Die Schwarze Kobra" (The Black Cobra) (1963), "Kali Yug, Die Göttin der Rache" (Goddess of Vengeance) (1963), "Doctor Zhivago" (1965), "Aguirre, der Zorn Gottes" (Aguirre, the Wrath of God) (1972), "Jack the Ripper" (1976), "Nosferatu – Phantom der Nacht" (Nosferatu the Vampyre) (1979) "Buddy, Buddy" (1981), "Fitzcarraldo" (1982), "Cobra Verde" (1988) and sixteen Edgar Wallace movies. He was married thrice and is father of the actresses Pola Kinski, Nastassja Kinski and actor Nikolai Kinski. His ashes where scattered near San Francisco.

Living jobless in Vienna at the end of the 50s, and without any prospects for his future, Kinski reinvented himself as a monologist and spoken word artist. He presented the prose and verse of François Villon, William Shakespeare and Bertolt Brecht among others. His famous performance at Vienna Townhall, 1959, has been recorded by Kinskis label Amadeo, but publication was forbitten by Helene Weigel, because of Kinskis variations from Brechts text. In the year 2003, the tapes have been found again and published first.
