    This remains to be my favourite. The tempo and dynamics here make this piece so exciting, as if it was always meant to be played like this. So much that other versions become almost boring.

      Hi Mary; hope you are well!. Your comment is excellent!. Not only is this a magnificent interpretation but this as other Bach concertos were used in the 70’s (and I am sure before then as well) in the field ofMusic Therapy. There is a principle that has worked for many years in order for a person to reduce anxiety symptoms and that is to first listen to first and third movements of some concertos and slowly get to the second movement. It works as a cathartic tool. Bach through perfection and beauty has been priceless!!….and Nigel’s work a dream. Imagine having had you tube then…- Take care.

    If one heard this for the very first time...and never saw the score..or listened to some hair-faced musicologist rant about how it is "supposed" to be played....one would think this is music from heaven. And it is, what it is. Take it for that. Bravo N. Kennedy.

    Slow movement is exquisitely sweet, the energy of the first and third different, but delightful. Not what Bach would have done probably, but so what? Isn't it wonderful, all the greats you can hear on You Tube playing the great composers? Let's celebrate the creativity and mastery of each. Unless you are Midori or Josh Bell or the like, don't be a critic, just enjoy!

      You are not the only listener who equates Bach's music to proof that God exists. But, I think that you have it 100 % wrong. Bach wrote the music using his faith as motivation.

    Normally super high tempi at Bach is not always the best idea... But Kennedy masters to make something very authentic from it.
    Played extremely virtuously but very clean and honest at the same time.
    Great listening to this non-orthodox interpretation.

    Absolutely spectacular. Sure, the third movement is "too fast," or at least very, very fast. But who's to say whether Bach, possibly the most inventive musician who ever lived, would have disapproved of an unorthodox, rocking version of his music three hundred years after it was written? Nothing Bach did was by the rule book... he *wrote* the rule book, and Nigel Kennedy can write a different rule book.
