the continuum of this expression, whose original colour and style characterize the french spirit. She has recorded the complete piano works by Paul Dukas for Naxos. But her true favourite remains J.S Bach, whose highly colourful counterpoint is particularly suited to the modern piano. She has recorded the complete Inventions, Partitas, English suites, Sonatas for flute and piano with Gérard Bourgogne as well as a CD of isolated pieces such as the Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue, the Italian Concerto. or as a chamber musician in sonatas with Anatole Liebermann, cellist, Anton Martynov, violonist, or Gérard Bourgogne, flutist.

She is particularly fond of enabling true sharing and correspondance amongst all the art forms, as if they were chamber music. Thus she created in Canada the score that Patrick Sciortino wrote for a ballet chreographed by Michel Caserta ; she performed in various shows associating music and poetry : Rilke – Bach with Laurent Terzieff, Mallarmé – Debussy with Tassos Vandis  (in Greece the Melina Merkouri Foundation), Milosz – Mozart with Pascale de Boysson, and she played with the company « La Hulotte » Tennyson’s melodrama « Enoch Arden », on a music by Richard Strauss with Jacques-Marie Legendre. She performed around some of Maupassant’s short stories with Harriet Anderson, resuming a previous performance with Anne Le Fol. She now enjoys playing with notes and words in a joyful combination with her daughter, actress Emilie Chevrillon.

She is the founder and artistic director of PHILOMUSES, and association whose goal is to promote talented artists from different disciplines, bringing together painters, composers and poets so that they can experience a mutually enriching dialogue by expanding their respective artistic universes. Similarly, she has created workshops for children, in order to open them up to all the arts in an educational, playful and varied manner, through music, dance, art history and mime. More recently, she has launched a new association, PYXIS (compas in greek), a support and promotion structure for young artists from different disciplines.
