She also works in professional vocal ensembles, including Choeur Rigolus/The Endless Summer (since 2005), Ensemble Jacques Moderne (Director: Joël Suhubiette; since 2006), Choeur de chambre Les Elements (since 2006), Ensemble William Byrd (since 2008), Le Parlement de Musique, Ensemble Il Ballo (since 2007), Choeur Florent Marchet (since 2012), Ensemble Les Lunaisiens (since 2014). She has recorded several albums with these conductors and ensembles.
