Pe Werner
Von A nach Pe
('From A to Pe')

Pe Werner – vocals
Wolfgang Köhler – piano

Political satirist, singer-songwriter, book author and versatile pop singer: Pe Werner is at home in many artistic realms. Her song Kribbeln im Bauch, at the latest, brought her to the attention of a nationwide audience. Her albums, with their reflective, melancholic lyrics and arrangements, have won numerous awards, including an Echo and a Goldene Stimmgabel. Pe Werner concerts are not just a string of beautiful songs. 'I never saw myself in a pigeonhole. I was never inspired by the women's movement, nor driven by politics, none of that. Which gave me the freedom to listen to everyone, and to simply write stories with songs.' The singer-songwriter presents her music as an evening of songs full of political satire, and takes her audience on a very personal journey from A nach Pe. Along the way, she spins her satirical and poetic lyrics and melodies into gold with a 'soulful feather lightness', together with her well-matched accompanist Wolfgang Köhler on the grand piano. She effortlessly jumps from chanson to pop, from couplet to swing, and even dares to share some of the tricks of her trade. Anything goes. Which is quite a lot, in her case.
