Lena Meyer-Landrut

German singer (born 1991)

Lena Meyer-Landrut belongs to the musical record as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.

The record lists Lena Meyer-Landrut as German singer (born 1991).

Lena Meyer-Landrut was born at Hanover in 1991. Her recorded nationality is Germany. She trained at IGS Roderbruch and University of Cologne.

Streaming replaced the record industry's economics in this generation: reach became enormous and the income per listen very small.

She worked as singer, composer and actor.

The instruments recorded are piano and voice.

Her work is classed as pop music, independent music and indie pop.

She performed with scouting.

Among her best-known works are Satellite and My Cassette Player. Music outlives its context more reliably than any other art, and usually for reasons its makers did not predict.

Recognition followed: First prize of the Eurovision Song Contest (2010).

That the work came out of Germany shaped it: musical traditions, training institutions and the reach of a recording industry all differ by country.

Lena Meyer-Landrut is still performing or recording, and the shape of the career is not yet settled.
