Greer Performance Studio, she gave a live performance with her quintet on The Main Stage of The Five Points Jazz Festival with special guest Richie Cole, along with Jeff Jenkins, Paul Romaine and Bijoux Barbosa.

On her last 3 albums, she has recorded with top Canadian and international musicians. Maria has also written a number of original compositions, and has completed a recording project with Fred Stride, orchestra conductor and music director at UBC.

Maria’s début album Where or When (2012) is receiving radio airplay in New York, Denmark, Italy, Denver, California, and CBC across Canada.
