NIGEL KENNEDY
Bach PLUS Fats Waller
The world's best selling classical violinist, Nigel Kennedy, presents a typically maverick musical programme celebrating the music of Bach and Fats Waller. The concert begins with the A Minor Partita for solo violin, after which he is joined on stage by an acoustic guitarist, a drummer and a double bass player to perform Kennedy's own arrangements of the music of the legendary Fats Waller.
BACH SONATA NUMBER 2 IN A MINOR BWV 1003
(for solo violin)
followed by the music of
FATS WALLER
(arranged by Kennedy for Violin, Guitar, Drum and Double Bass)
LINE UP (subject to change):
NIGEL KENNEDY - Violin
Jarek Smietana - Guitar
Yaron Stavi – Bass
Krzysztof Dziedzic - Drum
Says Nigel Kennedy, "Playing Bach and Fats Waller on one show is a dream for me - two amazing keyboard players, both masters of harmony and melody".
