The singer with the deep voice, lives in Berlin, where she gave her first performances in the nineties.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

She gave a voice to Eastern European and Russian music, even before the fall of the Berlin Wall gave us new colleagues like: Trio Scho<\/a>, from the\u00a0 Ukraine, Czillagog\u00a0 <\/em>from Hungary (later Transsylvanians<\/a>),\u00a0Andrey Sur<\/em>, I<\/a><\/em>lya Kurtev<\/a>, Slava Ardashev<\/a>, Dimitri Artemenko<\/a> and many more.\u00a0 She perfomed with all of those, at first at Karsten Troyke<\/a>\u2019s evening: \u2018Eigene Lieder und Lieder der Welt\u2019, after that at the \u2018Grain du Sable<\/em>\u2019 Festival in Paris<\/em>, in Rudolstadt<\/em>, in Deauville<\/em> and at the Berliner Philharmonie<\/em><\/span><\/p>\r\n

For 25 Years Suzanna has been bringing the songs and \u201cgeist\u201d of continental Europe to the stage. Born from a Russian mother, Suzanna sings romantic and traditional Russian songs, with a voice that makes you feel the scenery, the tragedy and the joy of a country that has seen so much. German on her father\u2019s side, she brings the joyful, often dark cabaret songs of the twenties and thirties, but also postwar chansons. They are songs from Germany, again a country that has seen much turmoil over the last century, brought on stage by Susanna and her friend Karsten Troyke in a Chanson Total program, sometimes with a tear, always with a smile.<\/p>\r\n

Travelling through Europe like a gypsy, always curious, always looking for new views and new horizons, she sings lots of traditional Roma songs. Leaving Eastern Europe behind, she sings chansons from Paris and gypsy songs from Spain, all brought in the same voice, filled with expression, feeling, character.<\/p>\r\n

In her singing she picks up her audience and takes them with her on this same journey. In the end this journey takes her back to Berlin, the town where she picked up the more modern chansons of G\u00f6tz Lindenberg<\/em>, her old time friend and pianist, and where she founded a band called Spreefalter<\/em> to sing his songs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
