The girl who took the geek factor out of classical music here

First page of the flute part, autographImage via WikipediaThe girl who took the geek factor out of classical music here Belfasttelegraph.co.uk: "Few genres have gone through quite as profound an image change in recent years as classical music.
Far from being perceived as frumpy or plain, mainstream classical musicians nowadays are often more glamorous, well-dressed and sexy than ever.
It is a formula which has worked well for such successful acts as Katherine Jenkins, Il Divo and Rhydian Roberts. But for Ulster flautist Eimear McGeown, such a transformation in the industry has proven a distraction from the genuine talent of the performers."
