Udo Jürgens (1934-2014) was an Austrian composer, singer and pianist whose career stretched across more than five decades. He won the Eurovision Song Contest 1966 for Austria with "Merci, Chérie", composed close to 1,000 songs, and sold over 104 million records - making him one of the best-selling solo artists in the world. He is credited with pushing German-language pop beyond the postwar Schlager tradition by blending it with modern pop and French chanson.
A Sotheby's online auction of Udo Jürgens' personal estate (23-30 January 2025) raised approximately €1.7 million - more than three times the pre-sale high estimate - with all 99 lots sold to bidders from 23 countries.
The highlight of the Sotheby's auction was Jürgens' transparent Schimmel concert grand piano, which sold for €240,000 - far exceeding its estimate of €20,000-30,000.
A new posthumous album compiled from Jürgens' legacy recordings was released on 16 December 2022.
