Meanwhile she continues to study at the Conservatory but this time in the jazz department and obtains a FIRST PRIZE IN PIANO in the class of Eric Legnini.
During the following years, her fondness for jazz or "southern" music is confirmed both on stage and in studio through various projects including her own TRIO with which she recorded the "AMAZONE" ALBUM on the IGLOO label, followed a few years later by the "MOON AT NOON" ALBUM which appeared on the MOGNO label.
