John-
You may be right, but I don't think Ms. Hatto and her husband and "producer", William Barrington-Coupe, made a great deal of money. That's pretty hard to do selling classical CDs on a one-man label (right, John?).
Hatto got some very negative reviews during her undistinguished and short performing career, and it's clear from what she and (especially) her husband had to say in interviews they resented it greatly. They went to great lengths to bamboozle certain critics, including Bryce Morrison, whom Chris mentions.
They also made up elaborate and ridiculous stories of important musicians Hatto allegedly worked with or knew, and even an elaborate biography for Rene Kohler, the fictional conductor in her concerto recordings. All of which was swallowed whole by many gullible critics, much to the couple's delight, I'm sure.
