Mr. Petric’s discography of 101 recordings includes 42 CD titles and 59 international state radio recordings that reflect broad curatorial sympathies.A repeat laureate of Quebec's Prix Opus and the OAC Hunter Recording Prize, his CD Orbiting Garden (Centrediscs) was JUNO nominated then cited in Gramophone as “a dizzying, elaborate and impressively played recital.” Mr Petric's Haydn album Heretic Threads was given special mention in California’s Future of Music with John Zorn and Pat Metheny. His recordings have been broadcast by HNK Japan, BBCRadio3, TV5, PBS, and most European Broadcast Union partners and have been highlighted in special features by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation 1986, 1996, 2019, 2021, Société Radio Canada in 2002 and 2004, and BBCRadio3 1994, 1998 and 2022. More solo and chambermusic albums are planned in upcoming seasons.
Mr. Petric's passionate commitment to audiences was possible only through the support of composers who carried an equally passionate respect for audiences. Respected by his peers as a “legendary collaborator” he was the first instrumentalist laureate of the Canadian Music Center's Friend of Canadian Music Award. He has been known to present as many as eight world premieres in one night for the Societe de Musique Contemporaine de Quebec and three concertos in one evening with the Victoria Symphony. Mr Petric has commissioned Pauline Oliveros, David Jaeger, Witold Lutowslawski, Linda C. Smith, Norma Beecroft, Norbert Palej, David Mott, Yves Daoust, Christos Hatzis, alcides lanza, Jocelyn Morlock, Julia Mermelstein and Bekah Simms among others.
