Act

In 2006 Yearling founded the theater company schattenvögel with Peter H. Yearling . She worked with Uli Partheil , Jürgen Wuchner , Jon Sass and Oliver Steidle and released the CD Vermicelli et les Vagamondes in 2010 . She also worked as a spokesperson for radio and audio book publishers.

In 2012 she opened the existing West Side Theater in Darmstadt together with her husband, Peter H. Jahreling . The opening piece was Billies Blues , a play about jazz singer Billie Holiday written by Marijke Jahresling. She also embodied Holiday on stage as an actress. With her band NOLA, she released the album Portrait of a Lady with titles from the Holidays repertoire on the Sound & More label in 2013 . NOLA toured Germany with this program in 2015. As a determined humanist, she wrote and published (with this band) the music title Lampedusa - A Mediterranean Requiem as a response to the massive deaths of refugees in the Mediterranean.

Yearling also played in stage plays and took on singing roles. In 2016 she was an actress and chanson singer in the Tucholsky revue Mensch, Kurt! to see, which she also wrote herself and for which she set some of Tucholsky's texts to music. In the same year she performed the program Stummvogelschreie with the French saxophonist Eric Plandé , which combined vocal-tonal interpretation mostly of Marijke Jahresling's own lyrics, but also texts by Ingeborg Bachmann and Rose Ausländer with improvisation.

In 2017 yearling and her band released the album Spheres of Monk , a homage to Thelonious Monk , on the US label Dot Time Records in New York (distribution: H'Art). Yearling was also responsible for all arrangements on this album and wrote new lyrics for some pieces ( Crepuscule with Nellie , Epistrophy , Rhythm a Ning ). On the album she is accompanied by her band, Steffen Müller-Kaiser (saxophone and clarinet), Lukas Moriz (piano), Rudolf Stenzinger (bass) and Uli Schiffelholz (drums). Among other things, she and her band presented the album 2017 in the vaulted cellar of the Darmstadt Jazz Institute .
