Michala Petri

This picture of Michala Petri, found somewhere on the Internet, does not do justice to this charming artist who I have seen many times on television over the years and in the flesh, very recently 21.12.1999 in the Glocke, Bremen, North Germany. Perhaps some kind surfer could provide a better one.
I have heard her also a number of times on NDR; once notably a performance in 1982/1983 of Concerto in F by Giuseppe Sammartini together with the Academy of St. Martin's in the Fields, conducted by Iona Brown. Another notable performance, also sometime in 1982/1983 was that of Luciano Berio's "Gesti".
For me, she has a terrific stage presence. At her recent appearance in Bremen together with the Berlin Barock Solisten I was greatly taken by her calm, very dignified performance as a soloist and then her modest way of melting almost unobtrusively into the background when playing "en ensemble".
Unfortunately my modest collection of Michala Petri recordings have gone astray and all I have presently are a few taped radio performances.
