She is the earliest recorded modern Greek female composer.[1] She studied piano and composition in Corfu under Nikolaos Mantzaros and composed works which were published by Francesco Lucca of Milan in 1839.[2]
Some of her works are exhibited in the Music Museum of the Philharmonic Society of Corfu.
