Fritz Bultmann studied school music, composition and German studies in Hamburg. He was initially a high school teacher and deputy headmaster at the now closed Heinrich-Heine-Gymnasium (Altona) in Hamburg, moved to Schleswig-Holstein in 1985, where he worked as a senior study director and headmaster of the Harktheide high school in Norderstedt in 2003.

As a young choir director, Bultmann was particularly shaped by a scholarship for choir management in Venice, the former Leipzig Thomascantor Kurt Thomas and Jürgen Jürgens, in which he sang along in his Monteverdi choir for many years.

In 1972 he founded the Kodály Choir Hamburg and headed it until the end of 2010. Today he is an honorary member of the choir.

From 1989, Bultmann was the association choir director of the Hamburg Choir Association, member of the music advisory board of the German Singing Association (DSB) and from 2006 to 2013 Landeschorerbund of the Schleswig-Holstein singing association. He is a co -author of the cultural program of the DSB, the mission statement 2000 of the Federal Association of German Choir Associations. In 2004 he also developed a statement on the role of music in all -day school for the German Singing Association.

Bultmann was a member of the Musikrat since the foundation of the German Choir Association (DCV) in February 2005 to September 2009 and thus also as its deputy chairman of the DCV.

Fritz Bultmann also has a name as a composer. He wrote many songs on German, Low German and foreign texts and edited many songs.

  • In December 2011, Fritz Bultmann was awarded the medal of merit of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. [first] [2] [3] In the justification, Bultmann’s commitment is emphasized for choral music. The expression of this commitment is his work as a choir director at Hamburg schools, the founding and management of the Kodály choir, his voluntary work in the Hamburg Choir Association, in the Sängerbund Schleswig-Holstein and in the German Choir Association and the maintenance of Low German and European folk music.
  • In April 2013, Bultmann was awarded the choir director badge for 50 years of choir director activity with the loop of the German Choir Association.
  • Also in April 2013, Bultmann was awarded the Heinrich Paulsen Medal “in recognition of the special services to the choral singing in the country Schleswig-Holstein”. The medal is the highest award in the Schleswig-Holstein singing association.

Bultmann’s compositional focus lies in the processing and arrangements of Low German and European folk song sets and Christmas carols, including almost forgotten pieces. He has thus “contributed remarkably to the care of Low German and European folk music”. [4]
