Doris Gertrud Johanna Stockhausen (née Andreae, 28 February 1924 – 20 June 2023) was a German music pedagogue. She was the first wife of Karlheinz Stockhausen who dedicated several compositions to her, beginning with Chöre für Doris in 1950 before they were married.
Life
Doris Gertrud Johanna Andreae was born in Hamburg, the daughter of the shipbuilder Max Andreae (1887–1973) and his wife Emmi Alwine née Blohm (1890–1931). She studied piano at the Musikhochschule Köln, where she met Karlheinz Stockhausen who also studied there. They were engaged in August 1951. Doris was raised Protestant, but converted to Roman Catholicism to prepare for her wedding.
They married—though both had no income yet and against her family's wishes—on 29 December 1951 in Hamburg, shortly before the composer moved to Paris for studies. Their best men were the Belgian composer and musicologist Karel Goeyvaerts and the magician artist Alexander Adrion [de].
In the 1950s, Doris Stockhausen was not only her husband's wife, but also his muse and inspiration. She made it possible for him to focus on his compositions. She accompanied him on several tours, and met friends such as Henri Pousseur, György Ligeti, Cornelius Cardew, Earle Brown, Heinz-Klaus Metzger, David Tudor, Frederic Rzewski, Hugh Davies, and Rolf Gehlhaar, many of whom they often hosted at their home for extended periods.
In the early 1960s, Karlheinz Stockhausen fell in love with the artist Mary Bauermeister but wanted to stay with his family, with four small children. Doris Stockhausen was first willing to live in a ménage à trois. Architect Erich Schneider-Wessling designed a home for them in Kürten, but when it was completed in 1964, Doris Stockhausen remained with the children in Cologne, where the children attended school. In 1965, the couple divorced, and she lived in Cologne where she worked as a piano teacher.
Doris Stockhausen died on 20 June 2023, at the age of 99.
