Reviews

“The name 'Farbenspiel' fits the album like the proverbial fist on the eye. Happy and with a lot of heart and soul, Helene Fischer sings on the 16 new songs about love, longing and all the small and big things that life brings with it. The combination of the clear voice with the catchy melodies will stay with many for a long time to come. "

- Florian Exactly : T-Online.de

"The new album 'Farbenspiel' by Helene Fischer offers everything from sensitive ballads - mostly with piano accompaniment - to clapping titles - everything that pleases the pop's heart and should therefore find its rightful place in every audio library."

- schlagerportal.com

“And so Fischer presents a 'play of colors' for 16 songs that is completely free of real colors. A record without courage, without jokes and without ideas. "
