In Baroque opera, she recorded in 1973 the part of an elegant lady in Lully's Le Bourgeois gentilhomme, with Siegmund Nimsgern in the title role; Gustav Leonhardt conducted La Petite Bande and members of the Tölzer Knabenchor.[7] She also recorded Andreas Romberg's Das Lied von der Glocke.[1] She performed in church concerts, such as in 1977 in Haydn's Die Schöpfung at St. Patrokli in Soest.[8]
