Her many recordings include Strauss songs with Wolfgang Sawallisch, Liszt songs with Cyprien Katsaris, and Schubert, Schumann, Mendelssohn and Brahms with Graham Johnson for Hyperion. Highlights of her operatic discography include Cosi fan tutte conducted by Otto Klemperer, Tristan und Isolde conducted by Carlos Kleiber, Die Zauberflöte conducted by Sir Colin Davis, Le nozze di Figaro conducted by Riccardo Muti and Un ballo in Maschera conducted by Sir Georg Solti.
