After a 7 years break, starting with January 2000, Maria appeared again in the club and festival life of Bucharest and of the country, imposing herself as an artistic presence of first range (as far as one can talk about recognition when one isn't creating a music of market-place.) Last years brought her impressive achievements: 7 single albums, among which 2 (PE VALE and LUMINI) nominated at the Civic Society Festivities by the Union of Composers and Musicologists from Romania as "The best jazz discographic creations of the year", as well as tours in Romania and abroad (th
