I just listed, in order, the women before the men and stuck to non-classical, primarily for vocals. Jacqueline DuPre is a great choice above.

Although she was not, perhaps, in the same league as a singer, I am still moved every time I listen to Nicolette Larson, but she didnt affect me as much before she passed away.
