Musik - Marianne Mendt

Marianne Mendt was born on 29 September 1945. She trained as a jazz singer and actress and toured as a singer and bass player, with group the Internationals, around Europe. In 1971 she represented Austria at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song 'Musik'. Performed as the first song of the evening, it was the first time that Austria was represented with a song in a Viennese dialect. At the end of voting 'Musik' could only manage 16th place of the 18 competing entries.

Mendt remains an active performer, regularly appearing at concerts and jazz festivals in Austria.
