singer

Andrea Marcovicci performed as a singer for more than twenty years at the renowned Algonquin Hotel in Manhattan in New York . Because in music she can express her personal feelings better than in acting. Still, she sees herself as more of an actress who sings than a singer who acts. Since she basically likes to agree on both characters, she especially loves cabaret , which, according to her own statement, is "a proven and true art form."

In 1993 she made her debut as a solo singer at Carnegie Hall , where she performed with the American Symphony Orchestra .

Andrea Marcovicci has also recorded a large number of CDs.
