(who writes too less on this website), because she has won the International Music Competition Jean Francaix in Paris, France, from 57 competitionmembers. She will give concerts in Belgium and France and will record a cd for the label ANIMA.
The information about the 2007 competition you still can not find on this website of the competition

In that email she wrote her
upcoming concerts:

Giraud looks like somebody who wants to put a whoopie cushion in your chair. I don't know if that's Presidential material.
