Jonathan Zelter

Ten years ago, an extraordinary journey began that continues to inspire millions of people to this day: Jonathan Zelter not only wrote his first big hit with ‘Ein Teil von meinem Herzen’, but also a song that has become an integral part of German-language music.


Jonathan Zelter is a musician through and through, who writes his great songs himself and also ‘embodies’ them. Nothing is artificial here, everything is genuine. Lyrics, music and interpretation form a harmonious whole - you can feel that at all times. Jonathan's strength lies in the details: every word has its place in every song - a standard that is reflected in all his works. He is not only an exceptional artist on stage, but also one of the most successful songwriters of his generation.


His works have been interpreted by stars such as Roland Kaiser, who sings his songs written by Zelter in sold-out stadiums. Gold and platinum awards and first place in the German charts underline his success as a composer and lyricist.


Global stars such as Peggy March and show icons such as Patrick Lindner also rely on his poetic flair and outstanding melodies. 2025 marks the start of another chapter: after several years of intensive creative work, Jonathan Zelter makes his debut as a lyricist for a musical.
