cellist and more

From an early age, I knew music was my path. But I didn't know how many detours I'd have to take to find my own voice. Maybe that's the best part. 

I love my cello - but I never wanted to play only within the classical framework. Instead, I began to search for my own musical language - with voice, loops, songs, and stories. 

My first album "Off the beaten track" describes this desire: to follow my intuition, leave the classical mainstream behind, and try something new. I want to bring the warm sound of my instrument to people who usually don't connect with classical music. To invite amazement - and at the same time offer a heartfelt feeling. 

My sound moves between art-pop, indie, and neoclassicism - fragile and intimate, yet confident and powerful. 

I grew up in a musical family where classical music was everywhere. As a child, I composed my own melodies on the piano - maybe that's why I love orchestral sounds, which I now recreate with my loopstation. 

At seven, I started lessons with the best cello teacher in the world. At fifteen, I performed as a soloist with the Philharmonic Orchestra Gera-Altenburg. I studied classical cello in Weimar and Lyon and then played in renowned orchestras. But despite these successes, I felt something was missing. 

I found the answer in a jazz cello course with Stephan Braun. In his improvisations, the musical idea traveled directly to the audience - without detours via sheet music, conductors, or musicological treatises. Music became immediate. 

I discovered that my cello is my tool and talent to be creative in my own way. I started improvising, writing songs, crafting honest lyrics, using my voice, and experimenting with loops, rhythms, and sounds. And one day I realized: this is what I want. There are no rules - only the certainty that everything I create in this moment is right. 

What I've learned: Our lives offer infinite possibilities to reshape ourselves again and again.

Those who always walk familiar paths remain below their potential. But those who are authentic and follow their dreams create new versions of themselves.

My album was a leap into the unknown. Completely new, totally challenging - and at the same time more fulfilling than anything I had ever done before. It showed me what is possible when I ask the right questions - and trust that I will find answers and people who support me.

On my album, you'll find six original compositions in dialogue with six favorite pieces from pop, classical, and jazz. I show how genres can inspire each other and want to encourage you: Follow your dreams. Listen to your voice.
