Silvia Droste had her first public appearances at the age of 14, as a member of the school jazz band in the field of traditional jazz. At that time she mainly played alto saxophon and only sang occasionally. This was back in 1974. Nowadays she is known as Germany's "First Lady" of classical modern jazz singing. Awards in divers jazz competitions and her prize-winning debut-album "Audiophile Voicings" have made her known to the German jazz audience.

She worked with a number of world-famous jazz artists in the modern styles as well as in the jazz tradition: Dutch Swing College Band, Mr.Acker Bilk, Jiggs Whigham, Ack van Rooyen, Dado Moroni, Michel Herr, Archie Shepp, Riccardo del Fra, and quite recently she toured with the John Hicks Trio, having besides John Hicks, Curtis Lundy and Idris Muhammad. This group was also recorded by the German TV-station WDR.
