The violinist Nigel Kennedy has achieved wide popularity through his "punk" style, musical passions and love of Aston Villa Football Club. In this autobiography, he writes of his childhood, rebelliousness, styles, attitudes and frustration with conventions.
Nigel Kennedy changed the course of classical music in 1989 with his multi- million selling Vivaldi 'Four Seasons'. Instead of an Introduction, the virtuoso violinist opens his new Uncensored Memoir with a tongue-in-cheek 'Warning'. It sets the tone for a truly original memoir that is as playful, unconventional and carefully executed as his music.
Der englische Geiger Nigel Kennedy, Jahrgang 1956, im klassischen Musikbetrieb ebenso bekannt wie in der Jazz- und Rockszene, schildert auf unterhaltsame Weise seinen Werdegang vom mustergültigen Stipendiaten der Yehudi-Menuhin-Stiftung bis zum eigenwilligen Solisten.
