Francesca participated in masterclasses with distinguished artists such as Guy Bovet, Ludger Lohmann, Hans-Ola Ericsson, and Olivier Latry and took part in prestigious academies, including the International Bach Academy led by Prof. Jacques van Oortmerssen and the Excellence Class at the Haarlem Organ Festival.
A regular performer at music festivals across Europe, Francesca’s repertoire spans from Early Music to contemporary works, including world premieres. Her artistry has been recognized in international competitions, where she has won two second prizes, and she has recorded three CDs.
Currently, Francesca is pursuing a PhD at KU Leuven (BE), serves as the main organist of the Church in ’t Woudt (NL), and is the artist-in-residence of the Contius Foundation, where she actively promotes the Contius organ of St. Michielskerk in Leuven.
