Nigel Kennedy's piece isn't necessarily better... he attacks the piece with such bombast, in places, that you can't hear the melody. At the same time, the highly piercing parts are stunningly good by his hand. This rendition sticks closer to the feel and flow of the composition, and lacks the frenetic energy of N. Kennedy's performance.
I agree with you Yunime, Nigel's style may not sound too classical, but he gives more feeling to each note than raymond cohen, cohen's perform sounds so mechanical. Nigel sounds different and unique. Also the background orchestra sounds more intense than this one.
it's my favorite part.

El bajo continuo.¿Esta castigado de cara a la pared?.
Este no es el espiritu barroco,mas bien,-vamos a decir-.El espiritu concertante de solista.

Be careful he'll spout some rubbish about Tartini being visited by Vivaldi not the Devil.
What? Teehee.
