Female Singers from 30s and 40s

[Ralf]

Quite some years ago on British televison a series of programmes about various countries motorcycle industries was shown.
The programme regarding German motorcycles ended with a hauntingly beautifully song, sung by a German woman from the 1920s to 40s I would guess, not the somewhat harsh spoken singing as practiced by Marlene Detrich, but a honey voiced lullaby of a song evoking what was good and gentle.

Any ideas as so far I have only been able to find similar from Polish artists of the time.

I'm mostly only familiar with the American Jazz singers of that time period. With the exception of Edith Piaf, I am only familiar with a few of the male musicians and singers, which came out of Europe, between the 1920's and 1950's.
