The singer Diana Burger from Karlsfeld has made a dream come true: The mother of two has released her first hit album - and storms the charts with it.
A late dream has come true for Diana Burger.
The mother of two children started a career as a hit singer at the age of 42.
Her debut album makes some top stars look old.
Karlsfeld
- Matthias Reim?
Two places behind.
The successful band
VoXXClub
, alpine rock'n roller
Andreas Gabalier
?
Even six and seven places further back, and with
top star Vanessa Mai
it's even eight.
Diana Burger
is currently in a better position than well-known colleagues.
Her
album "Konfetti ins Leben"
shot up
to number two
in the
hit list
in Austria.
The 42-year-old from
Karlsfeld
has every reason to be proud of her
debut.
It's a late debut.
Music has always played a major role in the life of Diana Burger.
But first Diana, who was born in Saalfeld in Thuringia, took a different path: she became a
physiotherapist
.

And obviously a very good one.
At the beginning of the 2000s she kneaded the
calf muscles of
the troubled footballers from
1860 Munich
- at that time still
Bundesliga
a - and other athletes.
But she knew that life had a very different plan in store for her.
Diana found the courage and quit her job as a
physiotherapist
to devote herself entirely to
music
.
Professionals had advised her to take this step.
In Berlin she was supposed to
record
her first
hit album
with
producer
Simon Allert
.

But then came that evening in
Munich.
Diana Burger met a man, it was far more than a love affair, he is the father of her two children, the now ten-year-old son and the 14-year-old daughter.
Diana stayed in
Bavaria
.
As a child, Dina Burger
learned to play the guitar
, especially the
classical
version.
“Then I turned around during puberty.
I sang the songs on the radio, especially
German music.
“She never put her guitar aside in the following years.

The music
contributed
to a
happy life
.
Diana Burger has never forgotten that there are people who have not been lucky enough
to suffer
strokes of
fate
.
Since 2011 she has been singing week after week in a
children's clinic
in
Munich
for young patients.
The CD
“Listening and Dreaming”
with children's songs was released.
The sales proceeds go to an
association that
supports
the
clinic
.
In 2013 Diana Burger was looking for a
house
in the Munich area
with her husband Matthias and their children
.
So they came to
Karlsfeld.
“We just fell in love here,” says the singer.
The proximity to the lake, the proximity to Munich, the place is simply perfect.
She has been writing songs herself for two years.
Of course, she benefits from
her well-founded classical
guitar training
.
On the debut album
“Konfetti ins Leben”
all songs -
music and lyrics
- are from her pen.
With one exception:
“Cats at Night”
was Petra Zieger's biggest hit at the end of the 80s.
Diana Burger from Karlsfeld takes off: Music videos are also shot
Petra Zieger, who came from Erfurt, was a top star in the former GDR, and she celebrated great successes even after the fall of the Wall.
The two Thuringian women met for a new recording of "Katzen bei Nacht".
An encounter with an
idol
that still
gives
Diana Burger
goose bumps
today
: “I was sitting on the sofa in Petra's living room and couldn't open my mouth.” The new version of “Katzen bei Nacht” was released as a
single
.
A
video
was shot about it.
The album
"Konfetti ins Leben" was produced
by
Simon Allert
- the Simon Allert with whom Diana was supposed to work 20 years ago.
Allert has an excellent reputation in the scene, he has already worked with
Roland Kaiser
,
Bernhard Brink
,
Jeanette Biedermann
and
DJ Ötzi
.
Stereoact remix: Diana Burger hopes for a breakthrough in Germany
The album was recorded in the
Hansa Studios in Berlin
- a name like
Donnerhall.
Diana Burger: “You go in with awe and humility!” Among others,
world star David Bowie
has already recorded there.
Diana Burger would love to
play
live
too.
Because of
Corona
, it has to wait.
Another special song by Diana Burger is available as
stream
and
download
on
Friday
: The successful
DJ and music producer duo Stereoact
from the Erzgebirge has
pre-buttoned
Diana's own composition
"Schmetterling"
for a remix version.
"It's a great honor for me that they took my song, they painted my butterfly a little bit."
The result puts you in a good mood and is extremely danceable.
And maybe it will help that the singer from Karlsfeld will soon also storm the German hit lists.
