Nigel Kennedy changed the course of classical music in the late 1980s with his interpretation of Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons'. He was revolutionary in his performance and presentation in his technique and his open minded attitude. A natural boundary-pusher and musical adventurer, Nigel Kennedy blew minds  and sales records  as he became the best-selling violinist of all time.Instead of an Introduction, Nigel opens with a tongue-in-cheek 'Warning' readers should beware of his politically incorrect writing style and his frank take on the BBC, record companies, the Bavarian Police and any other 'self-appointed wielders of power.' It sets the tone for a truly original memoir that is as playful, unconventional and carefully executed as his music.The book is structured like a musical performance, with 'Interludes', 'Outros' and an 'Encore' separating the regular chapters which cover Nigel's life story, from his humble beginnings and scholarship to the newly created Yehudi Menuhin School - and then New York at The Juilliard School - to his flourishing career and break-through as a world-class superstar.
