Nigel Kennedy - Tchaikovsky & Sibelius: Violin Concertos (2003)

First, as a violinist I can guarantee that Nigel Kennedy IS NOT a mediocre violinist, he is surely a great violinist one of the best of our time. Mr. Hurwitz you must be the kind of people Kennedy criticizes because you just can't accept the fact that he can play any kind of music being Jazz or Classical music or any other good music in a high level and he does play it very well as well as you can't accept his image and his way of thinking, and we can see it on your critic where you spent the whole message criticizing Kennedy and made just a small and not very happy commentary about the album. This album is a great album where Kennedy shows us his great technic and sensibility in my favourite two violin concertos, two marvelous works full of beauty. The sonority in the Sibelius concerto is something that can lead us to heaven and bring us back fresh and new, and in both concertos we can hear with delight the spontaneous and inventive kennedy's kind of playing! Buy this album, you won't regret!
