Let's stay with not classical musicians.

As far as intelligent musicians go, it's hard to top Queen's Dr. Brian May, who in October 2007 completed his PhD thesis in astrophysics, entitled "A Survey of Radial Velocities in the Zodiacal Dust Cloud".
What flesh and blood musician can compete with a myth?

Is it necessary to bring religion into an audio discussion?
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 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.
Few more...
