If you think of “fat women in Viking hats” when you hear the phrase “women in classical music”, you’re behind the times, my friend! There are tons of beautiful women in classical music today… here’s just a few:
Anne Sophie Mutter
(German violinist)
Helene Grimaud
(French pianist)
Cecilia Bartoli
(Italian mezzo-soprano)
Caroline Dale
(English cellist)
I used to have a huge crush on Anne Sophie Mutter. I was searching for something on Wikipedia last week when I stumbled across her picture and thought “Wow – ya know, she really is good looking”. So I dug up a few pictures of other “classical hotties” and thought I’d post them for your enjoyment. In doing so, I found Beauty in Music – a site dedicated to all the beautiful women that make classical music. It’s a fun site – if you get a few minutes, you should check it out!
