Narrators
Kathrin Rettl
Artist name: Via Voice
I’m (Kathrin) Via Voice, a voice artist with heart, soul, and sound. Born in Bavaria, at home in Tyrol – surrounded by mountains, family, and endless inspiration. I love stories, and it fills me with joy to bring them to life through my voice. Whether as a narrator, singer, or simply a "voice person" – every project is a little journey for me. I’ve sung for Disney, moved hearts in audiobooks, and contributed to a wide range of productions. I'm truly happy to be part of YourStarVoice – and excited for all the stories still waiting to be heard, felt, and lived.
Daniela Friesenecker
Artist name: Das Goldkehlchen
Reading has always been my passion. Through my children, I became a storyteller – and at the office, I often entertained my colleagues with voice imitations. At some point, it became crystal clear: this is my calling – to speak, to read aloud, to breathe life and emotion into stories with my voice. It makes me truly happy when my listeners feel the stories I get to tell, when I can give them goosebumps. That’s when I know I’ve done my job right.
Tom Albert
My name is Tom Albert. I was born in Munich, and I’m a voice actor and aspiring actor.
Alexandra Stüber
Artist name: Mirelle Aven
In 2024, I completed my voice acting training, followed by numerous advanced courses, including coaching sessions, workshops in various voice-over fields, and acting classes. Since September 2024, I’ve been working as a freelance voice actress and have also been volunteering for a small local radio station on the island of Föhr.
Chris Hartmann
I’m a voice actor driven by passion – with a voice that doesn’t just perform, but truly connects. Whether it’s audiobooks, voice-overs, commercials, or trailers – I make words resonate. My strength lies in bringing emotions to life and giving characters real depth. I don’t want to sound like I’m reading – I want people to feel what’s being said.
Thomas Meewes
Artist name: Tom's Voice 4U
I come from a family background rooted in film, language, music, and the arts. Listening and speaking have always been deeply important to me. What fascinates me most is shaping personalities through the voices I give them. I especially enjoy narrating book series that allow me to accompany and help shape the development of their protagonists over time. I feel at home in all genres – particularly LitRPG, crime fiction, historical novels, nonfiction, and self-help. I also truly enjoy dubbing work and voicing documentaries.
Anna-Lena Beck
Hi! I’m Anna-Lena, living in beautiful southern Germany with my husband and soon-to-be three children. As a graduate in English studies and theology, I’ve always loved reading – and as a singer and voice artist, I now have the joy of giving written words new depth and dimension that can truly move people. That’s what fulfills me – and brings me great joy!
Nikola Frehsee
I’m Nikola – a trained musical theatre performer and certified audio engineer. I’ve performed in stage productions across Germany, including Murder on the Orient Express and The Rocky Horror Show. I’m also a singer on board the Mein Schiff cruise fleet. Voice acting completes my professional journey. It combines my love of language with vocal expression and turns my voice into a versatile instrument – one that resonates far beyond the stage.

Hi, I’m Sarah. A voicecraftswoman. My voice is both my talent and my tool – and my favourite way to grow, express myself, and contribute to this world. I love exploring unknown worlds, building bridges, and expanding perspectives... and my voice follows me faithfully on every journey, transforming written text into confidence, hope, rage, longing, determination, disbelief, joy, vitality, song...
