Tenor born in Antwerp, Belgium to a German family. His career began in Halle, Saxony-Anhalt in 1925 in a production of "Hans Heiling" by Heinrich Marschner at the Opernhaus Halle. He then went to Brunswick and on to Berlin, where he sang opera from 1929 to 1944.
Wittrisch, whose singing was in its prime during the 1930s, was the first to sing "Das Lied ist aus (Frag' nicht warum ich gehe)" in the 1930 movie "Das Lied ist aus".
