Life and career

File:Yvan Rebroff.02.jpg

Rebroff was born on 31 July 1931 in Berlin{{AllMusic|title=Ivan Rebroff|class=artist|id=mn0000513266|tab=biography|author=James Christopher Monger}} (prematurely, he asserted, at seven months, on a train platform){{cite news| last1=Martin| first1=Judith| title=Rebroff: A Group in One| url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1977/12/03/rebroff-a-group-in-one/6d3e280e-00ce-4f85-bbd6-798edb41b4ff/|newspaper=The Washington Post|date=December 2, 1977|access-date=January 20, 2025}} as Hans Rolf Rippert to German parents. His parents were Paul Rippert,[https://de.rodovid.org/wk/Person:624553 "Paul Rippert b. 1897"], de.rodovid.org an engineer born in 1897 in Liebenwerda, and Luise Fenske,[https://de.rodovid.org/wk/Person:624555 "Luise Fenske b. 1896"], de.rodovid.org born in Bydgoszcz (then part of Prussian Bromberg). He claimed Russian descent, and while often disputed, this has never been totally refuted. In a 1989 interview with Izvestia, he said "according to documents I am Ivan Pavlovich Rebroff" ({{langx|ru|Иван Павлович Ребров|link=no}}).{{cite news|author1=Алимов Г.|author2=Чародеев Г.|url=https://russianshanson.info/catalog/285/articles/198|access-date=3 September 2023|title=Иван Ребров 'Я русский всей душой'|language=ru|trans-title=Ivan Rebrov 'I am Russian with all my soul'|newspaper=Izvestia|via=russianshanson.info|date=9 May 1989|quote=По документам я действительно Иван Павлович Ребров.|trans-quote=According to the documents, I really am Ivan Pavlovich Rebrov.}}

He studied singing at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg. Although his knowledge and pronunciation of Russian was imperfect, he became famous for singing Russian folk songs, but also performed opera, light classics and folk songs from many other countries. He was known on stage for his gusto. He performed over 6,000 concerts in his career, including a two-year seven-day-a-week stint at the Théâtre Marigny in Paris, singing and acting, among other greats, the role of Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. When he was well into his seventies, Rebroff still performed 13 concerts in 21 days on an Australian tour.{{cite news|title=A slave of the audience finds freedom within |date=2004-03-03 |newspaper=The Sydney Morning Herald |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230601105152/https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/a-slave-of-the-audience-finds-freedom-within-20040303-gdigos.html |archive-date=2023-06-01 |url-status=live |url=https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/a-slave-of-the-audience-finds-freedom-within-20040303-gdigos.html}}

Rebroff described himself as international, the "connection between East and West".{{quote without source|date=September 2023}} He was named an honorary citizen of the Greek Sporades island of Skopelos, his domicile.[https://web.archive.org/web/20110723171345/http://www.ivan-rebroff.de/ir.htm Ivan Rebroff biography] Rebroff was homosexual.{{Cite news|date=1 November 2018 |title=Heribert Daume erzählt: Mein Freund Ivan Rebroff|author=Tatjana Seibt|url=https://www.fnp.de/lokales/hochtaunus/usingen-ort893437/heribert-daume-erzaehlt-mein-freund-ivan-rebroff-10423583.html |access-date=5 June 2023|newspaper=Frankfurter Neue Presse |language=de |quote=Dass Rebroff homosexuell gewesen sei, wird zwar ungern öffentlich gesagt, inzwischen aus dem näheren Umkreis aber bestätigt.|trans-quote=That Rebroff was homosexual is only reluctantly said publicly, but it's now confirmed from close circles.}}

{{Citation needed span|date=July 2023|text=As well as being a singer, he was at least a reasonable violinist and keyboardist (he is pictured playing a church organ but may have also played the piano). Rebroff sang and was able to converse to a lesser or greater extent in several languages in addition to his native German; Russian, French, Italian, English, and Greek.}}

He died aged 76 in Frankfurt on 27 February 2008, after a long illness. Four days after his death, his brother {{ill|Horst Rippert|de}}, who is nine years his senior (and by his own unsubstantiated accounts shot down Antoine de Saint-Exupéry during World War II), claimed part of Rebroff's vast fortune.{{cite news|url=https://www.bild.de/leute/star-news/heimlicher-bruder-will-millionen-vermoegen-3898792.bild.html|title=Heimlicher Bruder will Millionen-Vermögen|trans-title=Secret brother wants fortune of millions|language=de|access-date=3 September 2023|newspaper=Bild}}
