In 2000 she recorded some demos along with Jeroen Englebert and the producer Pim Koopman, including the aria “O mio babbino caro” from Giacomo Puccini’s opera Gianni Schicchi. The Universal Music Group company gave them the opportunity to record an album together. Her first solo album, Eternal Woman (2001), was created starting from this collaboration. This album contained a fusion of classical and pop musical themes, in which she sings of eleven legendary women of world history:

Berger’s second studio album Mistress, which came out in 2003, is wholly dedicated to the emotions of the mistress and the deceived wife. Once more, she dedicated songs to women who made history.

In 1987 Petra and her sister Lida decided to compete on the television program Soundmixshow presented by Henny Huisman, reaching the finals with the song “I Know Him So Well.” After this show, the sisters were offered a recording contract and, under the name of Chess, soon had a modest hit with the song “Never Change a Winning Team,” composed by Jeroen Englebert. They followed this song with the singles “Make My Day” and “Promise Not to Tell.” In the early 1990s, Petra had a hit with the song “I Dreamed a Dream” in the musical Les Misérables. The growing success of Chess had a negative effect on her sister Lida, who quit the group. Lida liked to sing, but not to attract all the attention around her. Lida was replaced by Denise van der Hek. Success for the two of them led to recording a whole album of movie and show tunes: The Oscar Album (1992). This album included a duet with René Froger. That year Petra decided to focus on musicals, and then they were both gone from the group.

After her success with the group Chess, Petra Berger decided to become a better singer. She took singing classes that had various maestros of song at the same time, as well as piano, dance, and acting classes. Her first musical audition was in Les Misérables, but it came to an end in the final round. Her second musical audition was for Cyrano de Bergerac: The Musical, in which she played a major role. After an audition for the musical Phantom of the Opera, she played the role she had auditioned for. Later in the year 1993, the theatrical impresario Joop van den Ende asked her to come audition for the role of Johanna in the musical Sweeny Todd, which was her first real musical role. Later she played Belle in the musical Beauty and the Beast in Germany and Maria in The Sound of Music in 1995 in Belgium.
