The fans will miss him terribly. Gunther Emmerlich was a multi-talent on the German television landscape: his career began as a jazz singer, then the Thuringian was a permanent member of the Dresden Semperoper for 20 years. The musician later established himself as the presenter of many well-known TV shows, such as the program “Zauberhafte Heimat”. Sad news has now been announced: Gunther has died at the age of 79.
This is reported by the broadcaster MDR. Gunther’s death is said to have been surprising; the entertainer was probably still in good health a few days ago. Last Sunday Gunther performed at a Christmas concert, and the week before that he was also in top shape at another event. Further information about Gunther’s death is not known at this time.
The musician’s death must have come as a severe shock, especially for his family. Gunther and his ex-wife Anne-Kathrein always got along well until her death three years ago. Their marriage produced a son, about whom little is known.
