just fantastic. As someone who plays both lute music (on guitar) and recorder, I can with confidence say that these two don't even play fair. Miss Michala is the one who got me interested in playing the recorder decades ago. She and her then husband (Lars above) did a Sunday morning concert on my public radio station. Already studying classical guitar and at the time studying lute music,, it was not hard at all to be entranced by the wonderful performance on recorder by such a magnificent and dedicated artist as Miss Michala. God (for lack of a better word) bless Miss M and people like her. They make the world a better place.
Michala is the best ! A reference and an inspiration for all recorders players ! An angel of the recorder ! Huge talent and technique ! God bless you you angel Michala !
I accompanied a flute player in this sonata on harpsichord when I was in high school back in the 1970s. Then I heard Michala perform in the 1980s. Nice to hear this so many years later.
I've been listening to Michala Petri since she was 16 and the one thing I like about her playing is how she shapes the music. Early days, I'll accept there was more technicality than musicianship but that has smoothed out over the years. I've never seen anyone else who criticizes her come up with someone who can now take over Bruggen's crown as the best recorder player - so I'm going to say that Michala Petri is the best recorder player around today.
@ What do you miss? The stirring the air around with the recorder like other players do it? I am very happy that she is concentrating on her playing. No "show moves" necessary...
Llevo muchos años viendo este video una y otra vez pero nunca deja de asombrarme la perfección de su técnica, sobretodo el manejo de sus dedos , que casi no los separa del instrumento como sí hace otra joven recorderista famosa. Espectacular.
18 years ago I listened your incredible sound (both Lars and Petri create a perfect duo) for the first time. It was during the Opening Ceremony of the 32th International Chemistry Olympiad held in Copenhagen, Denmark. 3rd July 2000. You both played. Do you remember? I represented Mexico during that competition. Great memories. From that point I have loved for years your incredible performances and artistry.
Tak for altid. Michala, dine interpretationer er fantastisk og uovertræffeligt! Jeg er meget begejstret. Ja, jeg sværmer for dit spil. Jeg ligger på min seng, slutter mine øjne og begynder at drømme....
I have several cd's featuring Ms. Petri and I absolutely love them. I sometimes will play them for other people and will and everyone I play them for loves them as well. I would like to ask Ms. Petri what recorder she used to feature this beautiful recording (an alto I think) but what kind of wood and where did you get it? Thank u for such beautiful music!!! :) (and the accompanist too!) Tracy Owen
Parabéns Sra. Michala Petri. Para nós brasileiros da América do Sul estas músicas nos parece tão distante. Apenas uma centelha musical nos liga à Portugal, nossa Pátria-Mãe.
ameblo.jp/galwayera/entry-12126435608.html Despite, the fact that this sonata (BWV-1033) is difficult for modern flute players, Mrs. Michala Petri has blown it by a primitive tool called recorder. Moreover, perfectly. And accompaniment of lute is also awfully good. we must notice the movement of the minuet (4:22～). It is full of so wonderful improvisations which she has invented . I've heard such flexible behaviors of the player were welcome in Baroque era. she has also good sensitivity for Jazz .
+danawinsor ＊ I don't look down recorders. But I think the adjective "primitive " wouldn't be appropriate in this case. I should select "difficult" on behalf of "primitive". I thought that recorder is so difficult to play especially chromatic scale comparing with modern metal flute. I'd like to agree with your view about recorders. If the genius like Michala Petri played the recorder, it would become an accurate sophisticated instrumental. And Mr. Hannibal's lute is so marvelous as same as Goran Sollscher, guitar.
Beautiful playing. She does right by Bach. She has everything memorized and is completely at ease with what she's doing. Her lute player makes his part look easy (which it isn't).
Hey, what's with the dislikes! I know that there's a thing like free speech and freedom of expression, include to that personal preference. But this is just amazing, beyond judgement really. Whoever disliked this video, come on front and I will show you people who couldn't appreciate virtuosity simply because they haven't got it. I feel very sorry for you.
For me, Michala has always been a musician who since very early childhood has dedicated herself to a humble instrument, making it worthy for the music of the great masters. Some will react to this in a negative way. Ignore them. Music is more than all of us and not to be contained in any given formula. CZcams certainly has room for interpretations :)

When she plays it's heavenly . when I try to play that thing it sounds like a tea kettle.
Michala Petri's intonation is impeccable. Wow.

this lady has the most beautiful sound and her technique is breathtaking :) congratulations Madam - not to forget the lute ...
+belpberg1 So true! Her technique and tone are just out of this world.
+belpberg1 Thank you!
+stufour I agree!
Lars Hannibal :)
This is Bach's BWV 1033 flute sonata in C major
Fantastic interpretation! A flauta doce ganha uma relevância especial com os toques precisos e suaves de Michala Petri. Parabéns!
Magnificent tonalisation . pitch perfection . Somehow those high notes are in balance with the rest, such breath control.
Thank you Paul
En flot udført fløjtekoncert med danske Michala Petri og Lars Hannibal, Flot tak for det.
Thanks for leaving this up for more than a decade. It is a nice performance, and Bach never gets old.
Michala Petri the best recorder player all over the world , she is a legend
One of my cats got up from her nap spot, and came to listen to this in front of the laptop =D
This performance never gets old! I've heard it maybe a thousand times and still enjoy it. Thanks for the upload!
I Love You Michala! I love your Music! Its Excellent!
Gracias por tu música que me hace emocioconar al punto de llorar Michala!
Gracias!
Besos!
Ease and ability. Feeling and musicality. Michaela has got it all. Thank you for sharing your wonderful skills.
Been a fan long before CZcams. What a delight to be able to enjoy so many performances by this virtuoso player.
This is really good piece of music! I enjoy every second!!! Wow!!!
I had the honor of seeing her live last December at Lincoln Center and have to say she is perhaps the most talented woodwind player on Earth!
No she isn't. Her technical superiority is one thing, but her performance often lacks musicality.

Delightful and stunning! I love it!
Excellent. I could listen to this for hours.
I'm still watching this video once in a wile, listening this music makes me happie
cheers
this is music from heaven. ms. Petri is simply the best. una ves que empiezo a escucharla no puedo parar hasta que el video termina.
I've been buying her recordings for (gasp) nearly thirty years - when I bought her Vivaldi concerti album- on vinyl- on spec. A genius.
CHE BELLO! MERAVIGLIOSA!
Llevo muchos años viendo este video una y otra vez pero nunca deja de asombrarme la perfección de su técnica, sobretodo el manejo de sus dedos , que casi no los separa del instrumento como sí hace otra joven recorderista famosa. Espectacular.
Michala Petri is divine ... and playing Bach, the master, is simply unmatched.
Beautiful interpretations, a wonder to hear!
Chapeau!!!, what a wonderful performance!!!!. You are really delightful.
Guillermo Eustace wertet alles so auf

Well since no one notices that there is two people each equally talented I tip my hat to both of you
Simply Wonderful. So musical. Great selection of pieces!!!!!!
Parabéns Sra. Michala Petri. Para nós brasileiros da América do Sul estas músicas nos parece tão distante. Apenas uma centelha musical nos liga à Portugal, nossa Pátria-Mãe.
Es la primera vez que te escucho Petri ¡tocas hermoso, maravilloso! te amo.
what a beautifull music ;-)
I agree. I play recorder myself, but nothing like her. I'm just glad we have this forum so that a true artist like her can be seen as well as heard.
Very well played.
Estou aqui perplexo com tamanha perfeição!
Lovely!
que frío maestro! criomusica pura!
Her emotion is in the music. Her face is showing concentration.
Excellent observation
Well, this leaves me breathless... unlike Mrs Petri :-)
What a talent and musicality !!!
so beautiful
@TheNimbleTurtle It's BWV1033, Sonata For Flute And Basso Continuo No 1 in C

Grande Michaela!
Only two instruments played by two gifted musicians & a piece by Bach = Heaven!
MIchala siempre adorable
I love her playing.
La mas alta expresión de la flauta dulce. Exquisito.
i love this
Love this
Lindaaaa!!!
If Bach could hear this, he would probably say: Yes! Exactly!!
thanks for posting.
Wonderful
@qpalzmization You are so right, she is absolutely incredible. I doubt we will ever see her like again.
UAUUU!! que magnífica versión (quizas la mejor) Michala Petri supera la técnica y sobresale en la interpretación! insuperable!!
sabes qué tipo de flauta dulce es? soprano?
Alto.
Y BRAVÍSIMO HANNIBAL NATURALMENTE!
Although I am an amateur, I longed for Michala Petri and finally decided to participate in the Japanese recorder competition this year.
がんばります！
Wonderful.
Incomparável.
Genial!!!! es una capa!!!
Congratulations Michala Petri!
Perfect.
J'adore !

It's not the instrument, it's the musician.
Amazing *.*
Almost perfect !!
