Her strongly varied repertoire extends from early and modern music, opera, and oratorio, to include operetta, music theatre, cabaret and jazz.
This exuberant chanteuse is known for her interpretations of songs from the repertoire of E. Piaf, M. Dietrich, B. Brecht, H. Ordonowna and J. Abramow-Neverly. She moves with ease through this repertory with the charisma and the kind of “edge” necessary for these styles

This sensitive artist has graced the audiences with a voice of a beautiful sound, great range and flexibility that she uses and adjusts accordingly to the very diverse styles of her performances; charismatic stage presence, poise and dramatic interpretations, and proven that she is equally at home with sultry Latin tempos and the edge of music theatre as she is with soaring operatic flights (particularly in her portrayals in the title roles of Bizet’s Carmen, Gluck’s Orfeus and Mozarts’s Idamante).
She has sung in Poland, France, Germany, Canada and United States. Now she makes her home in Toronto.
