Violinist Nigel Kennedy Kicks-Off UK Tour This Week

Following the success of his UK performances of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons last season, including a sold-out show at London’s Royal Albert Hall, Nigel Kennedy is soon to be touring the UK in January, again performing his exhilarating and unique take on Vivaldi’s Four Seasons as well as his own brand new composition, the Four Elements.

 These new shows will mark the world première of the Four Elements. Composed for the Orchestra of Life and voices, the Four Elements is a highly descriptive composition, inspired by the elements of earth, water, air and fire, which takes the listener on a journey of exhilaration, contemplation and celebration.

For over twenty-five years, Nigel Kennedy has been acknowledged as one of the world's leading violin virtuosos and is, without doubt, one of the most important violinists Britain has ever produced.
 
Kennedy released his first Studio album via Sony in September, his own brand new original composition ‘Four Elements’, which he will be performing in full as part of his show. 

Nigel says "I couldn’t be happier to be bringing my new orchestra back to the UK for these dates with the Four Seasons and my new work - they are brilliant young players at the top of their form. It’s great to include my band members to the Orchestra of Life. For the Four Seasons, we have also brought in Massive Attack’s percussionist, Damon Reece – I am very excited by this new approach to the Seasons!"
