For many years now she makes use of her fascinating stage presence for interdisciplinary productions, wanting to open she world of opera to a young public. In 2010, she started to combine opera singing with Break-dance, and Hip Hop, placing her timeless voice art in surprising contexts and creating productive contrast.
