About Uta Bresan

Born 1965. Uta Bresan is a German television presenter, singer, presenter, musician and schlager singer.

Uta Bresan (born 9 March 1965 in Dresden, East Germany) is a German schlager / folk singer and television presenter. Commentators pay tribute to her enduring versatility in both capacities.

Biography Uta Bresan was born in Dresden, slightly more than 15 years after the launch of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). While still at school she undertook four years of training in classical singing at Dresden's "Musikschule Paul Büttner" ("Paul Büttner Music Academy"). After successful completion of her school career she remained in Dresden in order to study dance and popular music between 1984 and 1988 at the Carl Maria von Weber Music Academy, at the end of which she passed the exams necessary for a performing career with a "Level I" qualification. Awards followed quickly, including both a so-called "Silver Bong" prize and the audience award at the 1990 International Schlager Festival in Moscow. Over the years that followed she made numerous further appearances performed on schlager shows on public service television channels across Germany, especially (though not exclusively) those transmitted during the peak-viewing Saturday evening slots. The shows in question included Lustige Musikanten, ZDF-Hitparade, Musikantenscheune and ZDF-Fernsehgarten. Bresan's television music career took off not just in the so-called "Neue Bundesländer" / "new federal states" (before 1990 the "German Democratic Republic" / "GDR"), but also in the western parts of Germany from which, during the first 24 years of Bresan's life, the "GDR" had been brutally separated.

In 1993 the Leipzig-based MDR television broadcaster engaged her to present Tierisch tierisch, a weekly programme concerning domestic pets. The first 25-minute episode in what has become a very long series was broadcast on 4 January 1994. She is still hosting the programme as its regular presenter in 2021 .

Since 18 January 2004, when she took over the job from Carmen Nebel, Bresan has also moderated television's Saxony-themed music-request show Musik für Sie.

Personal Uta Bresan still lives in Dresden, the city of her birth. She married her long-time partner, the urologist Karsten Freund, in 2001. The couple's two children were born in 2003 and 2007.
