Jeden Augenblick (Every Moment)
Jeden Augenblick (Every Moment)
Calm, beautiful popsongs
... A new musical discovery:
The german-swedish artist, pianist and musician Ann-Helena Schlüter, born in a musician family, lives in Würzburg, Bavaria, Germany. She plays the piano since she is 4 years old. Her father, the german pianist Prof. Karl-Heinz Schlüter, taught her in pianoplaying until she was 17. She studied music in several famous music universities. She writes lyrics, poetry, songs and piano music. On her new CD “Jeden Augenblick” are 17 of her own songs, very creativ, interesting and different — tender and strong at the same time, like her voice. Recorded on a grandpiano with band, violin, cello, bass, drums. Deep prayers put to music. Especially touching the song ‘Beautiful'. As Bonus there are two classical pieces of Johann Sebastian Bach, which shows the talent of Ann-Helena Schlüter as experienced classical pianist. Such a gifted young woman will have a great international future. The CD “Jeden Augenblick” is a big new discovery in music and poetry. I recommend it to everyone with all my heart.

"Newcomerin of the year"- this title I grant to Ann-Helena Schlüter, who lets people look into her soul on her new CD "Jeden Augenblick" (cap-music). She goes very deep ways selfconfident on a musical, individual journey in three languages. Beautiful classical and Jazzelements in tunes, which seem almost supernatural and heavenly because of the intimate sound of her voice. High quality songs are in! The observably high musicality of the artist Ann-Helena is to trace back to her musicial family and her classical studies. It is the season of the songpoets! What Ann-Helena accomplishs as classical pianist is to listen tp on the CD PianoLyrik (cap-music), for example the Goldberg Variations of Bach.

... Also classical musicians stay mostly in their fields, no Improvisation. Ann-Helena Schlüter moves in both worlds: She is a great classical pianist, won many prizes, but she is also a Singer-/Songwriter with very special songs. She presents sensitive popsongs with band and strings in english, german and swedish. She appears with brilliant musicians out of the Pop-and Jazzscene, so there are also groovy sounds ...

Every Moment 2010 is a CD which gives insight into songs from the heart which are supported by grandpiano, violin, voice, cello, bass & drums. Songs and lyrics are touching and artistic. It encompasses a variety of songs with lyrics in German, English and Swedish, and as a bonus, ending with Bach.

With the CD “Jeden Augenblick (Every Moment)” succeeded Ann-Helena, a name and definition for fans of classical music (and rightly: Listen to her new CD CD PianoLyrik!), with a special spot: Deep-routend lyrics and songs, which flatter ear, heart and soul to sing along. She reminds me of Linda Perry. Ann-Helena does not play only piano and keyboard on her CDs, she also sings her own songs. She says that her songs are born in pain and written with the blood of her heart, and that is how it is supposed to be. The CD is good, high musical quality in her tunes and poetry, great musicians, who play with Ann-Helena. It is a very clean live album. A big variety: dreaming, groovy, supernatural floating and touching lyrics. Ann-Helena writes, that it is only a beginning. I would say, it is a good and promising one!
(Volker Grüner, Michael Ende, musik & message 2010)
She is to look at and to listen to. And the CD "Jeden Augenblick (Every Moment)" is a real hearer: Lyrics, imaginations, tunes, arrangements, harmonies of finest musical quality, composed of Ann-Helena on the grandpiano. She worked with her musicians many moments on this album. All of this is with exceptional intensity!
Ann-Helena - a name to remember
(Jürgen Werth, 2010)
“Both the music and lyrics seem to flow out of me. I think I have learned a lot from classical music, through my exploration of styles of music and poetry, and through my relationship with God.”
Ann-Helena
