Baiba Skride and Janine Jansen laying in a chair

October 2, 2005 at 9:49 PM

What do you think of the “beautiful hot violin chix”, like some people said in the Julia Fischer discussion, Baiba Skride (no guestbook and no emailadress) http://www.baibaskride.com. Ever heard a concert or bought a cd of this former QE-winner, who is laying relaxed in a chair like Janine Jansen www.janinejansen.com (foto below)?

In that thread, I just assumed you were down on them for it. Then I find out you're a fan and even made t-shirts of the photos. That's just damn refreshing, somehow. I bought teach yourself Dutch in 21 Days today.

I love the second picture. If she gets any more relaxed, her violin will go crashing to the floor. It's silly looking.

I agree it could use some tension. I'd like to see a tiger lurking in the background.

I heard her play with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra last season. She was good - but not as good as Hilary Hahn or anything. Very clean and correct, a little too much so for my taste. But she was really able to play "with" the orchestra, breathing with them and being sensitive to ensemble.
