April 16, 2020 – Spring and Summer Songs by Sternschnuppe – now also available on Hörbert – the child-friendly wooden MP3 player

Witty and sparkling songs and humorous short texts on a reusable memory card edition with the exclusive label “Spring/Summer” – ready to play for Hörbert.

Since its launch in 2011, the Hörspieler for children has been delivered as a ready-to-play package with pre-recorded content on the included memory card. And ever since 2011, songs from the Sternschnuppe Verlag have been on the free German starter card, which are well received by Hörbert listeners of all ages. For example, one finds out what happens when a refrigerator goes for a walk or when the polar bear doesn’t know it should be warm.

This long-standing cooperation between Hörbert manufacturer Winzki and the Sternschnuppe Verlag has now resulted in a Spring/Summer memory card edition mixed from nine albums by Sternschnuppe, which can be purchased as an accessory for Hörbert. Over 250 minutes of seasonally appropriate content are immediately ready to play, as the songs and short texts are already distributed over the nine colorful buttons of Hörbert.

Under the name Sternschnuppe, the well-known artist duo Margit Sarholz & Werner Meier releases their musically diverse and lovingly produced children’s songs and musicals, sometimes also in refreshing Bavarian dialect.

A detailed content overview for each card is available at the following link:

Sternschnuppe

When the cow goes to the cinema, the dumpling goes to the disco, and the fridge goes for a walk, it’s the successful children’s song duo Sternschnuppe behind it. On over 27 CD productions, the two artists and authors, Margit Sarholz and Werner Meier, equally enchant children and parents with their crazily rhymed texts and their lively music. There’s rapping, rocking, and sometimes Bavarian ‘Gstanzl’, sometimes salsa, sometimes waltz, sometimes reggae… Musical variety performed by top musicians with great dedication and skill and sung freshly and lively by Margit Sarholz, Werner Meier, and their Sternschnuppe children. Sternschnuppe is the best audio feed for young and old. They are songs that even dad sings along to, grandma chuckles at, the big sister dances along to, and mom enjoys listening to in the car – indeed, songs for the whole family.
