She attracted attention with intelligently designed programs and exciting world premiere recordings, such as the rediscovery of Offenbach's "Hommage á Rossini", Richard Strauss's first cello sonata, or the cello concertos by Julius Klengel and Matilde Capuis. Her recordings have received numerous awards, including the OPUS Klassik, the Diapason D'Or and the German Record Critics' Award.
