For over 60 years, this incredibly captivating artist, both in voice and personality, has been performing on stage – no, singing and dancing! With her entire personality, Gitte sweeps through an enormous repertoire and, in 2026, will present her music, stories, and passions in an excitingly fresh way – always looking forward and always Gitte Haenning! Gitte Haenning began her career in show business at the age of 8. Her first major German hit came in 1963 with the song "Ich will ’nen Cowboy als Mann" (I Want a Cowboy as a Man). Awards such as the Gold Record followed, along with more hits, including the song "Vom Stadtpark die Laternen," which Gitte sang together with Rex Gildo, making them the dream couple of the 1960s. The shift in her image to a serious pop interpreter in the early 1980s and as a musical performer in the 1990s brought her critical acclaim and attention from a broader audience.
