Hildegard Knef was full of zest for life and creativity; she was the most versatile of all the great divas. Her journey from actress to songwriter and singer, and her constant moving between continents, made her an early jet-setter.


She has left us a wonderful collection of her own chansons, which offer deep insights into a sensitive yet strong soul.


Velia has done a great deal of research and, as a Berliner with a wealth of life experience, is able to interpret these chansons beautifully without imitating Hilde.


The programme features Cole Porter numbers alongside Hilde’s evergreens, as well as lesser-known, exquisite gems.


As colourful as life itself.
