Greek superstar Nana Mouskouri will return to Australia next April as part of her world tour marking her 80th birthday.
Nana Mouskouri’s best-known hit is the Top 10 ‘Four And Twenty Hours’ from 1972 but her work for UNICEF and politics equals her achievement in music.
Nana Mouskouri was appointed the UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador in 1993, taking over the role from film legend Audrey Hepburn. Her work took her to Bosnia where we worked for children affected by the Bosnian war.
In 1994 she entered politics and became a Member of the European Parliament for the New Democracy Party between 1994 and 1999.
Nana recorded her first album ‘Epitaphios’ in 1960 and has recorded dozens of albums in English, Greek, French, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Hebrew, Welsh, Mandarin, Corsican and Turkish.
