‘To go on to the stage is like goning to a date for me.’ The singer
proved herself in different roles, not only as singer, but as an actress, a mentor of a talentshow, and also as a mother. And she did it in a hard way, because she choosed to live in the capital of Austria, so she needs to commute between her homeland and her so called nest.
Andrea Malek, the uncrowned queen of the Hungarian musical from the age of eighteen played many leading roles on Hungarian and foreign stages. (Eivta, Les Miserables, The Chess, The Sound of Music, Chicago, Wake Up!, Elisabeth, Camelot, Cats…)
The child of the famous musician family never broke up with pop and jazz music in waht she was grown up, and she became a valuable singer with a wide rage of repertoire. She goes to the stage as the international ambassador of the culture as a Hungarian but anywhere in the world, she provide the tresure of music wherever she goes.
