Let's get down to businiess - Who is the Hottest Female Pianist Ever?

[ako]

I think shes Hilary Hahn. Grestest american female violinist ever. She won the Grammy at the age of 25 due to her amazig performance of Brahms concerto

The violinist in the picture is not Hilary Hahn. I have seen Hilary in recital and that's not her. But I also have no idea who the violinist in the picture is. 

BTW, I pick young Martha Agerich. She has a powerful presence.

[Waldszenen]

I think mutter sucks at violin. hated everything of hers that I have heard so far.

Haha true man, true

And she's married to Andre Previn, the conductor, who's like DOUBLE her age...

[presto agitato]

Ok guys, hold your breath:





France´s most beautiful female pianist: Lisa de la Salle

[goansongo]

She looks beautiful in the first picture...  But not so in the second.

[Bouter Boogie]

Allow me to add:




Holly Hunter.

She looks like a male, though

[Kaylia_D.]

Yeah argerich when she was like 16- 30... freakin holy goodness(and btw I can get away with saying this because i'm not 18).  Seeing videos of her at the chopin competition; she definately has my heart

Tell me i beg of you..where can i get such a video of her at chopin competition?

Kaylia_D.

[thalbergmad]

This is the most beautiful pianist of all time.

Don't know her name but she sure is cutesy.

[prokomozart man]

  dang, there's a lot of them so I can't name just ONE hottest female pianist. Because of my interest in Asian culture and beauty, here are my favorite picks:  (in no particular order)

J Y Song   https://www.propiano.com/artists-song.html
Christine Yoshikawa   https://www.christineyoshikawa.com
Lucille Chung   https://www.lucillechung.net
Angela Jia Kim   https://www.angelajiakim.com

[stevie]

15 years old, the hottest 15 year old pianist!

(i think shes the hottest ever)

[4tissimo]

I too would have to go with Martha Agerich, I think.  I saw her on a video when I lived in Japan.  There was a shot of her from above that revealed a world-class rack.  I think the camera person was purposely exposing her assets. 

   As for violinists, Janice Martin gets my vote.  Saw her in Sasebo, Japan and Hawthorne CA and she is SPECTACULAR!

[stevie]

a world-class rack you say?

maybe thats what you get when youve had a few kids

[Siberian Husky]

da comme


respect

[stevie]

You guys must lead VERY sheltered lives....

Valentina Lisitsa and Natasha Paremski.........tsk tsk

on a scale of one to ten (ten being very beautiful), i would put them both at around 4/5!

I will find a picture of somebody more beautiful and tell you the link......


Okay, found one! Check this out:

[kreso]

Martha Argerich!

[barnowl]

Sara Marianovich:

No contest.

Sara's the winner.

[arensky]

Okay, I'll have my say as an oldie; who cares if such statements are politically incorrect these days. For me the answer is easy - Mary Lou Williams. As it happens I adore her music too - she must have been an overwhelming presence at the piano in her prime.

Ted has fine taste! Uh, what's not PC? And who cares anyway?

Mary Lou Williams was the first important for many years the foremost female jazz pianist in the world. She started as a boogie woogie pianist in Kansas City, became an arranger for Andy Kirk's big band and soon developed a sophisticated and individual style of playing that never lost touch with her blues n' boogie roots. In the 1950's she became a devout Catholic and moved to France, performing infrequently but composing jazz influenced classical music. She returned to playing Jazz Piano full time in the 1960's and taught at the University of North Carolina until her death in 1981. I had the good fortune to hear her play in 1980. Her playing was restrained but profound, if that makes sense...

And she was definitely one of the hottest female pianists ever!   

The elegant art deco Mary Lou Williams...

[jre58591]

I am disappointed. Only one person mentioned Helene Grimaud?

she looks like nikolai lugansky kinda, so thats a big turn off. she isnt stacked much anyways.

[pianochild]

Helene Grimaud and Martha argerich (younger years), i saw Helene live playing beethovens 4th concerto. Very good!

[pekko]

Tim Hoffman!

[BoliverAllmon]

Tim Hoffman!

bwahahahahahaha

[bananafish]

OH GOD! Tim Hoffman... just when I thought "finally he's gone", but he has never really gone, has he?

He's made an everlasting, profound impression on PF that can never be erased!

[BoliverAllmon]

unfortunately true

[deja vu]

argerich

phwoar

<takes cold shower>

[stevie]

[burstroman]

I always loved Dame Myra Hess for her mind.

[dlu]

I always thought Mitsuko Uchida was beautiful:

And I always thought Elisabeth Leonskaja aged well:

Clara Schumann:

And the hands down winner...Argerich:

[berceuse]

What about Polina Osetinskaya?




 

[BoliverAllmon]

I am sorry, but I do not find Argerich attractive at all. I just can't.

[dlu]

boliver

I think part of what makes her attractive is her mysteriousness.

DLu

[quasimodo]

Argerich was attractive.
Even Stevie would have fallen for her.

*ERROR*

[emmdoubleew]

Helene Grimaud

Seriously, how can people say Lisitsa is the hottest with Grimaud around:

[musik_man]

Seriously, how can people say Lisitsa is the hottest with Grimaud around:

How can anyone say that somebody other than Grimaud is the hottest with Grimaud around?

[quasimodo]

How can anyone say that somebody other than Grimaud is the hottest with Grimaud around?

Grimaud has a super-face, especially those eyes.
Although she has a child-ish built which IMO doesn't make her hot or sexy at all.

[BoliverAllmon]

What about Polina Osetinskaya?




 

her nose looks like mine and that is not a compliment.

[berceuse]

Has everybody already seen this video?

All I can say is WOW! 

[steveie986]

Has everybody already seen this video?

All I can say is WOW! 

She resembles Keira Knightley (face and boyish build). Once upon a time a young and effeminately pretty Glenn Gould was playing a Beethoven concerto at Leonard Bernstein's home. After a stunning cadenza, Bernstein remarked, "You played that cadenza so beautifully I almost came in my pants." My feeling exactly.

[berceuse]

I think I've watched that video about 20 times in the last hour.  stevie986, that is an excellent quote; it perfectly sums up my feelings as well.

[quasimodo]

Although I adore Helene Grimaud's playing I fundamentally dislike her on-stage antics, it's so visibly unnatural... Just like her writings. When one is so pretty and talented, no need to add acting to the package, it almost ruins the 'personnage'.

[brewtality]

Hey wait a minute, aren't you a big supporter of Lisitsa? What about all her goofy expressions and movements? I actually think Helene looks classy. But yeah, she sometimes comes off as a bit pretentious, trying to be to impress upon people that she has 'enlightening' things to say about the music. Have you heard her interviews? they set my teeth on edges! Every third word is 'euh comment on dire?' like she can't speak french anymore...

Lisitsa can be quite irritating now and then (Polonaise Fantaisie for instance), but at least she's often funny, "legendary CG" as some would say, and even when she acts it quite a bit, it doesn't feel so unnatural.
Grimaud wants to appear very "deep"... when a pianist starts looking at the ceiling, arghhh!!! And her liner notes to her recordings... Come on, Helene  .
However, Grimaud plays great.

[pies]

Argerich was a fine looking lady when she was young. Now she looks like a witch.

[quasimodo]

How rude  !!! She looks like someone aged 65  .
That post is a bit unlegendary...

[pies]

It's called brutal honesty.

[quasimodo]

It's called brutal honesty.

The kind of one your piano has become a casualty? Hahahahahahahaha.

[zheer]

   Very very beautiful indeed, possibly the most beautiful female classical pianist, i wonder who's the lucky B***rd sleeping with her.
