Her first solo album “Amorosi Accenti” with Concerto 1700 dedicated to Domenico Scarlatti’s chamber cantatas has been highly acclaimed in the international press.

She reunites with Les Arts Florissants for William Christie’s 80th anniversary giving concerts in New York Carnegie Hall, Versailles, Bordeaux… and for Handel’s La Resurrezione at the Philharmonie de Paris.
