235 years since the birth of the Italian violinist and composer
Niccolo Paganini
Niccolo Paganini (27 October 1782 – 27 May 1840) was an Italian violinist, violist, guitarist, and composer.
He was the most celebrated violin virtuoso of his time, and left his mark as one of the pillars of modern violin technique.
He had exceptionally long fingers and was capable of playing three octaves across four strings in a hand span, an extraordinary feat even by today's standards.
The Caprice No. 24 in A minor, Op. 1, (Tema con variazioni) are among the best known of his compositions. It has been the basis of works by many other composers. Notable examples include Brahms's Variations on a Theme of Paganini and Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.
