Heinrich Lutter
Heinrich Lutter (13 August 1858 – 11 October 1937) was a German pianist and piano educator.[1]
Life
[edit]Lutter was born in the residence of the Kingdom of Hanover as the son of a music teacher.[2] After the proclamation of the German Empire, Lutter studied piano from 1876 to 1886 with Franz Liszt in Weimar and Budapest, and – also in Budapest – musical composition with Robert Volkmann, and finally, again in Hannover, piano with Hans von Bülow.[2] The content of a letter from von Bülow to Lutter in Hanover, dated 18 November 1877 from Glasgow has survived.[3]
Lutter quickly made a name for himself in his home town as a piano teacher, where in 1887 he initiated the "Lutter Concerts" which he then directed.[2] In the highly acclaimed chamber music concerts, played "the best singers, violinists, violoncellists and pianists".[4]
In 1888 Lutter joined the Hannoverscher Künstlerverein.[2] During the respective season in London, Lutter performed as a pianist from 1891 until the beginning of World War I and also gave piano lessons.[2]
Lutter often accompanied Joseph Joachim on concert tours from 1897 to 1906.[2] In 1908, Lutter was appointed professor.[1] The royal professor and court pianist lived at least temporarily in Ferdinandstraße 21.[5]
In 1910, Lutter established the Verein Celler Musikfreundein Celle in cooperation with the musician Theodor Krüger.[6] Lutter died in 1937 in Hanover at the age of 79.[1]
