(First: My title is "stolen" from my wonderful friend Alice Stuart's CD "Freedom" [2007].
Please, also drop in to rockqueen3 , she is great!)

My work: Solo on Youtube, as "Balladen & Blues" with Martin Hofer and Heinz Müller
About Me:
 
I work with mentally handicapped persons and my hobbies are literature and music. I play acoustic blues and fingerstyle guitar. Since 2002 I work on a project together with Martin Hofer, an actor from theatre: He declaims classical german-speaking authors like Goethe, Schiller, Ringelnatz and Heine, and I play the classical blues of the 20th and 30th (Blind Willie Johnson, Son House, Charlie Patton, Robert Johnson and all the other great musicians). We have a lot of fun.

The music that I play grows very slowly. I'm no good for repertoire. I love YouTube and I want to thank people like Dave (lupine22) and Incongra for their help and inspiration as well as all the supporting commentators.

"Without interpreters, many of these songs would be lost forever as well as die with the author" Alice Stuart

Ich arbeite im sozialen Bereich und bin Hobbymusikerin. Ich spiele akustische Blues und Fingerstyle Gitarre. Mit Martin Hofer, einem Regensburger Schauspieler, trete ich seit fünf Jahren mit dem Projekt BALLADEN & BLUES auf: Goethe trifft auf Robert Johnson, Heine auf Blind Willie Johnson und viele andere überraschende Verbindungen. Mein anderes großes Interesse gilt der Literatur. Habe einen besonderen Faible für klassische deutschsprachige Prosa, z.B. Jean Paul, Adalbert Stifter oder Arno Schmidt und Thomas Bernhard.

Die Musik, die ich spiele, wächst sehr langsam. Ich tauge nicht fürs Repertoire. Ich liebe YouTube und danke Menschen wie Dave (lupine22) und Incongra für ihre Hilfe und Inspiration sowie allen Mut machenden Kommentatoren.
