Mara Kochendörfer singer-songwriter and cellist MARA creates a unique sonic landscape where Art Pop and Chanson meet Neo-Classical influences. Originally a professional orchestral cellist, her artistic trajectory shifted in 2016 toward jazz improvisation and songwriting, leading to her acclaimed 2020 debut album, Off the Beaten Track. Praised by critics for its “real pop appeal,” her work moves away from the classical mainstream to favor honest, intimate lyrics that encourage listeners to explore their own intuition.
A versatile performer, MARA has graced stages ranging from the WDR-Rundfunksaal to the Capitol Theater Offenbach, and has collaborated with global icons like Michael Bublé and David Garrett. Whether through her solo project or her latest single, “Was du für mich bist,” her music serves as a call for human connection and creative freedom—driven by the conviction that life is best lived through the pursuit of one’s dreams.
