Petri is an amazing artist. It's simply incredible the range of expression she can wring from a recorder. Unfortunately, it appears this CD is now out of print. Classical Net reviewed it twice: http://www.classical.net/music/recs/reviews/r/rca62543a.html http://www.classical.net/music/recs/reviews/r/rca62543b.html BTW, the catalog number given above is applicable to the BMG music club. The RCA catalog number is 09026-62543-2. Excerpts from this disc can be found on an RCA release in their "Artists of the Century" series. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000J916/classicalnetA/ Perhaps "Moonchild's Dream" will be reissued at a bargain price at some point in the future.
