Reinecke, P. Sancan and S. Prokofiev, a repertoire conceived as a journey through the compositions for flute over three centuries and an opportunity to discover this instrument’s versatility.

An accomplished musician, she regularly collaborates with orchestras and chamber music ensembles, while as of 2012 she also teaches the flute at the Athens Conservatory.
