On November 2nd, 2025, there was great anticipation for Heino's concert in the Nikolaisaal in Potsdam. Visitors aged 9 to 99 came to celebrate the legendary musician. He is ready to celebrate his 87th birthday on December 13th. Among the guests were Kathrin Grund from Lüneburg and her mother as well as Ester Günnel from Oranienburg. They all had high expectations: fun and a good mood thanks to Heino's musical evergreens. Meeting point Potsdam reports that Heino easily met these expectations.
The event not only offered nostalgic feelings, but also real musical highlights. Heino performed, accompanied by the singers Angie and Gabi, who have supported him for 40 years. His repertoire included well-known songs such as “Karamba, Karacho”, “The Black Barbara”, “Rosamunde”, “Junge” and “Scandal about Rosi”. New songs from his current album “Lieder meine Heimat” (2023) also caused enthusiasm. The folk song archive mentions that Heino's music is often characterized by a strong feeling of home, although he also deals with themes such as nature and nostalgia.
A special evening
The connection between Heino and his audience was palpable. During the performance, many people present sang along and remembered the 1970s, a time that had a decisive influence on Heino's music. Highlights of the show included the German version of the prisoners' choir from Verdi's "Nabucco", "Eure Heimat", and the joint singing of the national anthem, which caused a standing ovation. Heino, who has been wearing dark sunglasses since the 1970s, thanked us with an encore in a red jacket and entertained the crowd with “Blue Einzian”, “Black-Brown Hazelnut” and “Holla the Forest Fairy”. The Wikipedia highlights that Heino has sold over 50 million records in his career and is a successful pop singer whose musicality resonates across generations.
The audience was not only enthusiastic about the music, but also about Heino's uniqueness and his similar charisma on stage. The evening was characterized by a happy atmosphere, and many visitors spoke wistfully about the memories that Heino's songs awakened in them. His commitment to social projects, such as the Bethel children's hospice and support for the German Cancer Aid, also underlines his big heart. The folk song archive gives insights into Heino's earlier works, which often address the longing for home, and show why he has a special place in people's hearts.
Heino's influence is far-reaching; He has also given concerts in the USA and was known for his appearances on various TV shows. Enjoying his music brings people together and lets them reminisce.
