Speaking four languages and interested in very diverse musical worlds, she has recorded Opera arias under the baton of Olivier Granjean, Lieder with the pianist Nicolas Diatikin, Medieval music with the Ensemble Kantika as well as film music. Her musical Eclecticism allows her to work in both sacred music and works of the 20th Century .
