This last piece, a tribute to Pier Paolo Pasolini, was premiered at the Teatro Comunale of Pordenone, with Maurizio Baglini, Omero Antonutti, Valentina Coladonato and the RAI Orchestra of Turin conducted by Tito Ceccherini and is part of a live Decca cd.

As a soloist, she has recorded for Rai Radio3, Rai Sat, France Musique, and France 3. For Sony Classical, she has recorded music by Rota, Casella, Respighi, Pizzetti with the National Orchestra of the Rai of Turin directed by Corrado Rovaris.
