Nigel Kennedy rocked the Royal Albert Hall. Vivaldi himself would have been proud

The rebel of the Classical Music world showed us what an enigmatic, emphatic and exceptional performer he really is. Along side the Orchestra Of Life, Nigel Kennedy interacted with the audience continually, was clearly in awe of his fellow musicians and humbled by the  very music of Vivaldi and The Four Seasons being performed before us. The evening was a wonderful and delightful pleasure to the ears. What Kennedy does best is break down any pretentious barrier around Classical Music to allow the audience to be comfortable and simply inspired. His original personal style is only second to his natural talent as a genius with a Violin. It was as though Nature intended all along for Kennedy to play the Violin, a necessary part of something. Not just a man made instrument then learnt, well. The energy and life bellowing and echoing around the great hall from this one man and his fellow musicians gave you goosebumps and a racing heart, once again.
