In 1990, she started touring the world for the next ten years with musicians such as Chick Corea, Jacky Terrasson, and Kenny Barron.[1]
She recorded the album Piano, Piano (Dreyfus, 2006) with pianists Corea, Enrico Pieranunzi, René Urtreger, and Benoît de Mesmay.[2] The album includes standards such as "God Bless the Child" and "Never Let Me Go".[2][3] Her cover of the song "Taking a Chance on Love" was used in the 2005 Chanel Chance perfume commercials.[4]
Jack Goodstein of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, described her album Either Way as "perhaps the finest album from a jazz vocalist I've heard this year, and certainly the most interesting."[5][6] Christopher Loudon of JazzTimes called Ducros part Blossom Dearie, part Annie Ross, and part Yma Sumac.[2]
