Hi Love-Hounds,

Yesterday I told you about the radio programme about Nigel Kennedy on
Swedish radio. We were up and listened to it, hoping there would be
a mention of KT.

Well, here's the transcript. My comment is within double parenthesis:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Artist of the Week: Nigel Kennedy", Swedish Radio P2, 17/2/90, 
0515-0530 EST
--------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Artist of the Week: violinist Nigel Kennedy, is one of England's
most brilliant contemporary musicians, in all categories. He studied
at Juliard ((sp?)), and since the debut in 1977 he has played with most 
of the famous symphony orchestras. But he also belongs to a younger
generation musicians who are accept more musical traditions, and
Kennedy has, for example, played jazz for many years, and he has also
lent his services to Kate Bush's songs. ((Yeah! they mentioned Her!))

Here we are going to hear him in a piece by William Walton. We hear
the 1st movement Andante Tranquilis from the Violino Concerto from
1938. The violinist Nigel Kennedy plays here together with the Royal
Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Andre Previn ((sp?))."

((They play the above mentioned piece, and then the programme is over...
not even a few notes from _The_Fog_...))
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Nigel Kennedy  is in Stockholm, at least tonight, and he will play in the
Berwald Hall tonight together with John Lenehan on piano. The concert
will be aired on Swedish radio, P2, 1930-2125 EST.

Yeah! that's all from Sweden at the moment!
