Most sophisticated and intelligent musician


Let's stay with not classical musicians.
It's John McLaughlin for me.

Lewhite, I already offered Dr.Brian May as an example of an intelligent musician.

Hey, if King David is your contribution, then so be it, but I'm guessing from the original post that Inna was looking for something a little more contemporary.
I don't see why 'classical ' musician should be excluded. Seems unfair.
So from the still living, I'll nominate Pierre Boulez.

I think King David is a historical figure, not just a religious figure.
Excellent point.

King David. Historical and religious figure. Sophisticated and intelligent musician.

Great addition to the list. Nice job.
