Some Famous People called Helmut Brandt

Helmut Brandt (musician)

Helmut Brandt (January 1, 1931, in Berlin – July 26, 2001, in Stuttgart) was a German jazz baritone saxophonist and bandleader. His style was influenced by Stan Getz and Gil Evans.

Brandt sang in a church choir as a boy, and played violin from age ten before learning saxophone and guitar at a conservatory. He began playing professionally in 1950 and led his own group by 1954. Initially a tenor saxophonist and clarinettist, he switched to baritone in 1954. Through the end of the 1950s he worked in a Berlin radio dance band, and played in the orchestras of Lubo D'Orio and Kurt Widmann. His Mainstream Orchestra was popular in Berlin in the 1970s. Brandt died of a heart attack in 2001.

Helmut Brandt (CDU politician in East Germany)

Helmut Alfred Brandt (16 July 1911 - 31 October 1998) was a Berlin city councillor and a leading German politician in the Christian Democratic Union (Christlich-Demokratische Union / CDU), a political party of the centre right.

After 1945 the eastern part of Berlin, where Brandt lived and worked, was administered as the Soviet occupation zone of what had been Germany. By 1949, when the occupation zone was relaunched as the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), it was in the process of becoming a second German one-party dictatorship. Helmut Brandt opposed manifestations of this development: he was ousted from his job with the ministry of Justice and his position as a member of the CDU party leadership team. On 6 September 1950 he was arrested, although he would have to wait another four years for any sort of trial. He was accused of activities hostile to the state ("staatsfeindlicher Arbeit") and he spent the years between 1950 and 1964 in prison.
