Tereza Ana Kesovija was born on 3 October 1938. She graduated from the flute program at the Zagreb Music Academy, and as a student began appearing in amateur music events. In 1962, shortly after the start of her professional career, she won her first international contest at Saint-Vincent, Italy. After this success, Tereza had a tour in USSR and she recorded one EP with Italian songs for the biggest Russian music company – Melodiya. She spent 1963 and 1964 touring USSR, Poland, Finland, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Norway and Sweden. She also had a lot of TV appearances in these countries.
In 1965, she moved to France. One year later, she was chosen by Grace Kelly to represent Monaco in the Eurovision Song Contest. Her song was 'Bien plus fort'. She also recorded the song as 'Još Mnogo Jače', in Serbo Croat. I had that version earlier than this original French version - but it's good to finally own it now.
