Vivaldi/ Nigel Kennedy - New Four Seasons

2015 release, Nigel Kennedy's new interpretation of his block-buster 1989 release of The Four Seasons, which is in the Guinness Book of World Records as the best-selling classical work of all time and has sold in excess of two million copies. Mixed by Damon Reece (Massive Attack, Goldfrapp), who also did the electronic drum programming, Kennedy deconstructs this classic piece in a daring, modern way. The album also features singers Zee Gachette and Xantone Blacq, a former member of Amy Winehouse's band and was recorded with Kennedy's Orchestra of Life consisting of young musicians who are equally at home performing classical, jazz and improvisational repertoire. Says Kennedy, "I hope that this new approach brings you a different and deeper enjoyment of this amazing music." Nigel Kennedy has not only been acknowledged as one of the world's leading violin virtuosos but he is the best-selling classical violinist of all time. His technique, unique talent and mass appeal have brought fresh perspectives to both the classical and contemporary repertoire. Kennedy has performed with leading orchestras throughout the world.
