Until now I always thought that the first Austrian National Selection was in
1981 with some songs of Marty Brem.
Last week I received information about a National Austrian Selection already
in 1962.
On YouTube only the first song is available
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nxGRxY9wlY and in the ORF programme
"Österreich 12 Punkte" a short part of Eleonore Schwarz in this preselection
was shown.
-More information is, since I got it last week, available on
