Between 1994 and 1997 she worked together with pianist Rita Marcotulli on the project Nauplia, in which she combined the music of her home town, Naples, with improvisational elements of jazz. She has often worked with the British composer Colin Towns and with pianist John Taylor. She was a leading player in projects such as The Ugly Duckling with music by Giorgio Gaslini.
