I've only heard her play live once, in Birmingham (England) about 1980. I actually have her autograph, not something I'd normally bother about.

She is a good player, and has been very successful. But she differs from other recorder soloists in that she is less concerned about authenticity. She has made various recordings with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, for example. Whatever you might think of them, they aren't an authentic instruments band.

I played the recorder for years, but it is a long time since I've bought any recorder records so I can't really tell you who to listen to.

If there are so many people on this board unwilling or unable to have a civil and balanced discussion about important issues, then I shan't bother to post here any more.

To the great relief of many of you, no doubt.
