Tine Kindermann is a German visual artist and singer who lives in New York.
Her artistic work and recent recordings of old German folk songs draw inspiration from the darker side of folklore and deal with the timeless themes of love and loss, longing and loneliness. Although Tine has been singing for 30 years and worked with artists such as the Klezmatics, Adrienne Cooper, Joanne Borts, Greg Wall, Lorin Sklamberg and others, "Schamlos Schön", which features some of New York's finest contemporary musicians, is her first solo recording.
Most of the songs on the CD, which were first performed live in New York in 2001, are classics of German folk music and were taught to Tine Kindermann by her mother and grandmother.
Tine's dioramas, which are largely inspired by German fairy tales, have been shown at NY Studio Gallery, Metaphor Contemporary Art, NYU Galleries, the Toy Theatre Museum, the Manhattan Borough President's Office and other places. ..realeditor..realeditorbest profile tools
Hey Tina, great video! Where in Germany were you? I came back from Halle, Leipzig and Koln tonight... I wonder at what age I should let my German-speaking son listen to your CD :-) What do you recon?
