He made easy listening and jazz-oriented records, and wrote the music for a number of well-known songs, such as "Strangers in the Night" (originally recorded by Ivo Robić) and "Spanish Eyes".
He was born in Hamburg, Germany, and studied at the School of Music there. A multi-instrumentalist, he was hired by Hans Busch to play with his orchestra before serving as a bandsman in the German Navy during World War II. He later formed his own big band, toured with them, then worked as an arranger and producer, making hit records with Freddy Quinn and Ivo Robic. In 1961, he hired The Beatles to back Tony Sheridan on "My Bonnie (Lies Over the Ocean)," "When the Saints Go Marching In," "Ain't She Sweet" and "Cry for a Shadow," in a session for Polydor. These turned out to be the Beatles' first commercial recordings. When Beatles manager Brian Epstein asked Kaempfert about further promoting The Beatles, Kaempfert informed Epstein that the company was only interested in The Beatles as Tony Sheridan's backup group. (It also turned out British Decca executive Dick Rowe turned them down in favor of local beat combo Brian Poole and the Tremeloes.) He then released The Beatles from their contract with Polydor.

I sure wish that there was more music like this

😲 Bert Kaempfert one of the Best bandleaders in the World!
Rip 🙏
@AlexejSvirid
The problem is Devil runs the world. He is liar and murderer. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy.
That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's Kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. He's anointed Jesus Christ. The dead will be resurected and we'll see our loved ones again! :-)

Que linda musica sensacional uma maravilha essa sinfonia eramos felizes e não sabia bela época
@Geraveio1952
Muitíssima especial! Essa música embalou a minha infância. Muito humilde, porém, doce.
@e.almeida633
Lembrança do querido cantor brasileiro Carlos Gonzaga que, cantava a versáo dessa música, sucesso total em 1958. Eu era criança. Saudade náo tem idade.
