Interview von Monika Widler in der "Brigitte"

La Lupa wird 70. Doch kaum eine andere Sängerin ist so jung und so präsent wie sie.

Und keine andere schreitet so würdevoll bunt gewandet durch die Stadt.

Biography
She was born Maryli Maura Marconi in the Onsernone valley in the canton of Ticino, on February 9, 1947. She was given the name La Lupa when she was a teenager and kept it as her stage name. When he was 20 years old, she went to Zurich, where she lives. She is married with retired bank clerk Markus Herz.

Career
Her first public performance was in 1980, when she palyed the leading role in the open-air play "Der Suppastai" with singer-songwriter Walter Liethaof in the Arcas-Platz de Chur, Swiss canton of the Grisons. Since then, she has produced around two dozen solo programs, often presented in Zurich spaces such as the Kunsthaus and the Stock Theater, accompanied by musicians Fortunat Frölich, Fabian Müller and Hieronymus Schädler on the stage, under the direction of Polish musician Michal Ratynski. Her productions and audio recordings include musical renderings from poets like Dante Alighieri, Kahlil Gibran, Guillaume Apollinaire, Angelo Poliziano, and Biagio Marin, among many others. Also popular chants, and themes by contemporary artists like Gigi Piano, Domenico Modugno, Violeta Parra, Gino Paoli and Sandro Lombardi. Freshness, fusion of soul and core, ingenuity, and juxtaposed cultural richness are traits mentioned by qualified commentators to describe La Lupa's art.
