Meyer began playing the clarinet at an early age. Her first teacher was her =

father, also a clarinetist. She studied with Otto Hermann in Stuttgart and =

along with her brother, clarinetist Wolfgang Meyer, and now-husband, =

clarinetist Reiner Wehle, who played later in the Munich Philharmonic. She =

began her career as a member of the Bayerische Rundfunk Symphony Orchestra =

and the Berlin Philharmonic, where her appointment as one of the orchestra'=
s =

first female members, caused controversy. Herbert von Karajan, the =

orchestra's music director, hired Meyer in September 1982, but the players =

voted against her at the conclusion of her probation period by a vote of 73 =

to 4. The orchestra insisted the reason was that her tone did not blend wit=
h =

the other members of the section, but other observers, including Karajan, =

believed that the true reason was her gender. In 1983, after nine months, =

Meyer left the orchestra to become a full-time solo clarinetist
