Anne-Sophie Mutter... I think I'm in love...

[Dave Muscato]

Not as confident a performance as say, Itzach Perlman, but hey, she was ~21 years old at the time. Excellent dynamics and passion, downright ferocious in parts, but so delicate in others... Man, musicians like this make me want to sell my instruments and go work in a gas station in shame.

She still looks good [and can play] today. If memory serves, she did a concert & CD signing earlier this season at Orchestra Hall/Symphony Center.

Oh yes, she's on tour right now in Asia, if I recall correctly... and I read that she's single!!
