What is Concertmistress?
1.
A female violinist who is in charge of the entire orchestra, and who outwardsly displays her authority, and opinions to the usually more pompous conductor. She apparently kicked the butts off of the other violinists (including male violinists) to get her prominent position.
The concertmistress wore a gorgeous dress, that would have looked better on a more humble soloist.
