Hagen Kunze (born 1973) is a German journalist, music critic and playwright.
Life.
Kunze comes from a pastor's family and learned piano at an early age. He attended the special school for music education in Zwickau and studied musicology, journalism and philosophy in Leipzig, Graz and Halle (Saale). Afterwards, he worked as a freelance journalist and music critic as well as church musician - he wrote for daily newspapers and professional journals, such as the "Neue Musikzeitung".
Kunze was an editor and later editorial director of the "Döbelner Allgemeine Zeitung" - "Leipziger Volkszeitung". This was followed by a position as personal assistant to the Saxon CDU member of the European Parliament Lutz Goepel. From 2008 to 2012, he was chief dramaturge of the Mittelsächsisches Theater in Freiberg/Döbeln. He also worked as a teacher at the Döbeln grammar school. Since 2013, he has been teaching at the Evangelische Oberschule Lunzenau. Kunze gained media recognition when he appeared in the satirical programme Extra3 and a TV report was dedicated to him. This happened because he did not have a particulate matter sticker on his electric car and parked in Leipzig.
Kunze is a member of the CDU.
