'Kennedy's recording of the Concerto is not to be missed. The violinist amazes with his total command. In alliance with a conductor second to none as an Elgar interpreter, Kennedy produces a reading to match any in imagination and technical mastery.'
- The Gramophone

This recording was awarded Gramophone Magazine's "Record of the Year" in 1985

"Kennedy's first recording of the Elgar Concerto is aflame with a young man's passionate inspiration, though never lacking subtler nuance, while Handley simply breathed Elgar like no-one else." BBC Music
