The German music market has grown six percent so far this year.

Even more remarkable is that much of this growth is attributed to German popular artists – as distinct from American – who now command 73 percent of the German market, the highest on record.

A similar pattern has evolved in classical music, with David Garrett and Anne-Sophie Mutter (in that order) outselling all other violinists by miles in the German market.
