 Lulu (singer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lulu on the cover of her 2002 album Together
In late 2004, Lulu became the host of her own 2-hour radio show, on BBC Radio 2, playing an eclectic blend of music from the 1950s to the 2000s, all having to do with the influence of songwriting.
Marie McDonald McLaughlin Lawrie OBE (born 3 November 1948), best known by her stage name Lulu, is a Scottish singer and songwriter most known for the 1960s international hit record "To Sir, With Love".

 Lulu: Frank Wedekind
Wedekind’s musical talents can perhaps be inferred from his studies: “as a schoolboy he learned the guitar and the flute and, later, the violin, piano and mandolin” (Jarman 13).
Bertolt Brecht’s own appearance as a cabaret singer in 1921 showed the influence of Wedekind’s musical style, as did his Die Dreigroschenoper (1929).
Accompanying himself on guitar, he sang settings of his own poems, doing so with a harshness matching the brutality of his lyrics.

 Lulu: Staging
What was seen on the stage of the Paris Opera was a vulgar and contemptible tragedy that converted the music of all three acts in relation to what was transpiring on the stage, into some sort of general background music at best and an utter irrelevancy much of the time” (ibid., 291).
While the composer attends to the musical and dramatic plan of the opera, the director is responsible for the practicalities of staging.
In performance, these markings must be obeyed; otherwise, the music of Lulu, which is an essential part of the drama, becomes a meaningless accompaniment.

 Lulu
Lulu was one of the most successful singers of the 1960s, with hits including "Leave A Little Love," "The Boat That I Row," "Oh Me Oh My (I'm a Fool for You Baby)," and "Boom Bang-A-Bang." In 1969, she married BeeGee Maurice Gibb at St. James Church in Buckinghamshire.
