Question info request: Leena Conquest

Hello ALL,
I'm doing a research about Leena Conquest.

I met Leena in Roma at the New York is Now! 2004 Festival in Rome, where she performed with the greatest William Parker, Amiri Baraka, Hamid Drake...

I'm looking for any biographical info, CDs, references or contacts about her musical background, past experiences...

Thank you very much

Best Regards
Stefania

Stefania: have you tried the AMG site (www.allmusic.com)? It's exceedingly slow & awkward to use, but it does have an entry for Conquest. It seems she has one disc to her name plus a few appearances on discs by Parker, Sunny Murray, &c. No biographical info, though.

She collaborated with Radu Malfatti & Werner Dafeldecker on a CD and documentary concert footage, found by Googling her name. I was curious to try the obvious route, as her name is vaugely familiar...

This seemed like such an unlikely combination that I tried to find it myself but couldn't seem to dig it up. Are you sure about this?
