Famous singer reinvents herself

Helene Fischer discovers the world of children’s songs

Helene Fischer's album of children's songs — Helene Fischer’s album of children’s songs

The well-known singer Helene Fischer has released an album of children’s songs inspired by her own daughter.

Helene Fischer, known for hits such as ‘Atemlos durch die Nacht’, has taken on a new musical challenge. A mother of a daughter for two years, she has discovered the joy of singing with children and has decided to share this experience with her fans.

The decision to release a children’s album may come as a surprise to many, but for Fischer it was a project close to her heart. In a press statement, she explained that it was important to her to preserve classic children’s songs such as ‘Bruder Jakob’ and ‘Weisst du wieviel Sternlein stehen’, as they are part of the German cultural heritage. She has reinterpreted these songs in her own version, which has given her great pleasure.

With her new album, Fischer is now addressing a younger audience, but hopes that the parents and grandparents of her fans will also enjoy it. She emphasizes that the songs can evoke memories of her own childhood and therefore have a cross-generational effect.

She is particularly keen to encourage children to sing along. She is fascinated by how children let themselves be guided by feelings and what emotions arise in the process. Fischer herself had a lot of fun during the recordings and enjoyed slipping into different characters to make the children laugh.
