 Niccolò Paganini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arcangelo Corelli (1653-1713) was considered the father of violin technique, transforming the role of the violin from a continuo instrument to a solo instrument.
Paganini developed the set of concert variations for solo violin, characteristically taking a simple, apparently naïve theme, and alternating lyrical variations with a ruminative, improvisatory character that depended for effect on the warmth of his phrasing, with bravura extravagances that left his audiences gasping.
Paganini was one of the first superstars of public concertizing.

 Niccolo Paganini Biography / Biography of Niccolo Paganini Biography Biography
Niccolo Paganini was born on Oct. 27, 1782, in Genoa of musically ambitious parents.
Nevertheless, Niccolo did study violin for a while, as well as composition and instrumentation.
On returning to the violin he performed a love duet by using two strings of the violin and then surpassed this by playing a piece for the G string alone.

 ETUDE - August 1940
Paganini gave himself up to the practice of the guitar as eagerly and with the same amount of concentration as he had previously done on the violin, and his mastery of the instrument was so thorough and rapid that his performances became as celebrated as those of the guitar virtuoso Regondi.
Paganini was intimate and performed in public with the leading guitar virtuosi of that time, and the guitar exercised a great influence and fascination over his musical nature.
Paganini was a very intimate friend of the guitar virtuoso Luigi Legnani and they often toured together giving joint concerts.

 Niccolo Paganini
Paganini is the father of modern violin technique.
Paganini, on the other hand, would boldly walk onto the stage, shake back his long black hair, place his violin under his chin, and begin to play without the aid of music.
However, Paganini can also be compared to Elvis Presley, who began to lose popularity during the last few years of his life.

He also challenged musicians with such compositions as his 12 sonatas for violin and guitar; 6 violin concerti; and 6 quartets for violin, viola, cello, and guitar.
Having requested the loan of a violin from a wealthy French merchant so that he could fulfill an engagement, he was given a Guarnerius violin by the merchant and later refused to take it back when the concert was over.
His playing of tender passages was so beautiful that his audiences often burst into tears, and yet, he could perform with such force and velocity that at Vienna one listener became half crazed and declared that for some days that he had seen the Devil helping the violinist.

 INKPOT#57 CLASSICAL MUSIC REVIEWS: PAGANINI- An Inktroduction to the Devil's Violinist
I have a Paganini concert violin made by stradivari.
Paganini was a performer who could count Schumann, Schubert, and Liszt as part of the audience, the last who was so inspired by him that he went on to become the Paganini for the piano.
THE NAME "PAGANINI" is so often seen (especially at violin "prodigy" concerts) that one wonders how many classical music enthusiasts are left not aquainted with the man and his music.

 Classical Notes - Niccolo Paganini's "Caprices", Classical Classics, Peter Gutmann
Paganini single-handedly changed the course of music by inventing the cult of the performer.
Veinus speculates that Paganini, an irrepressible improviser, never bothered to write out his solo parts in full, since he had no intention of following them anyway, and that Paganini's scores were mere ground plans for musical edifices which he built up extemporaneously during actual performance.
Paganini published some surprisingly nondescript guitar sonatas and quartets, which he apparently aimed toward amateurs and had no interest in performing himself.
http://www.classicalnotes.net/classics/paganini.html

  
 Niccolo Paganini (1782-1840)
Paganini's output naturally consists of compositions for solo violin : 24 Capriccios for Solo Violin, 3 Concertos, Sonata Apassionata for Violin and Orchestra, 12 Sonatas for Violin and Guitar, 2 Sonatas and 2 Sonatinas for Guitar, a String Quartet.
Niccolo Paganini is more famous as a very great violin virtuoso rather than as a composer.
In any case, one can find in them the elements that are proving Paganini's undeniable musical talent.

 Lesson Tutor: Classical Composer Biography: Niccolo Paganini
Before he reached his eighteenth birthday he had already written a violin sonata, and although composition did not come easily to him, he managed to produce, in the course of a busy lifetime, a very large number of works for the violin.
To get the feel of this most famous of all violinists and his music I am playing the Third Movement of his Violin Concerto No. 1 in E Flat major, Opus 6, and found it immediately recognizable as the work of Niccolo Paganini.
He would even cut a notch into his top violin string, so that when it broke he could amaze his audience by completing the piece on the remaining strings.

Paganini: Concerto for Violin and Orchestra No.1/Saint-Saëns: Concerto for Violin and Orchestra No.3 ~ Niccolo Paganini (Composer), et al
"Paganini for Two" on first glance sounds like any other recording made especially for background dinner music (even the tiny sticker on the packaging highlights this point!)but there is a lot of lyrical refinement for even the serious Paganini collector and classical music lover.
It is an interesting fact that Paganini wrote over 100 solo pieces for the guitar even though he is now known primarily for his violin works.

 Legendary Violinists. Niccolo Paganini
He also was not above employing certain tricks of virtuosity, such as tuning up the A string of his violin by a semitone or playing the "Witches" Dance" on one string after severing the other 3 on stage, in sight of his audience, with a pair of scissors.
After the chamber orchestra itself was dissolved (Jan. 1, 1808), he played in the court string quartet and also served as violin teacher to Prince Felix Baciocchi.
During an engagement in Livorno he so impressed a wealthy French merchant that he was rewarded with a valuable violin.

 Niccolo Paganini
At the age of eight he composed a violin sonata of surprising merit; a half year later, he played the Concerto of Pleyel in church so successfully that he was frequently engaged for church functions.
In 1797, Paganini undertook an extended concert tour in Milan, Bologna, Florence, Pisa, and Leghorn, startling the audiences with his phenomenal technique.
Shortly after this, Paganini almost lost this famous violin in gambling.

 Niccolo Paganini by Jacob Joyce
Paganini wrote an easy passage first and then made it different, though you can still hear the theme.
I chose this composer because he plays the violin and I do to.
At the age of 7 he started to play the violin.

 Niccolo Paganini
Nicolo Paganini, Italian virtuoso on the violin, was born at Genoa on the 18th of February 1784.
His name stands in history as that of the most extraordinary executant ever known on the violin; and in spite of greater artists or no less remarkable later virtuosi, this reputation will remain with Paganini as the inaugurator of an epoch.
His will left a fortune of £80,000 to his son Achillino; and he bequeathed one of his violins, a fine Joseph Guarnerius, given him in early life by a kind French merchant, to the municipality of Genoa, who preserve it as one of their treasures.

was that Paganini had made the music for violin which todays shredders try to emulate thats it...

 Niccolo Paganini (1782-1840) 2 Sonatas for Guitar
Though it is common knowledge that Paganini was one the greatest violin virtuosos who has ever lived, it is not as widely known that he was also an accompolished guitarist.
These two short sonatas, extracted from his collection of sonatas for violin and Guitar Op.3, begin with a beautiful contabile opening, followed by short and fast movements of great technical brilliance.
These Barrueco arrangements embody all of the charm and technical wizardry of Paganini's style.

Paganini, Niccolo (1782-1840) Italian violinist and composer [noted for the widespread rumors (that he had sold his soul to the Devil) engendered by his virtuosity]
Paganini sat at the opposite end of the room and mopped sweat from his brow as a chisel was introduced between the table and the rib.

 Paganini
He made his first public appearance in 1793, and at Costa's suggestion he then began to play solos regularly in church every Sunday - a discipline which he was to appreciate in later years.
His natural aptitude for violin became apparent at an early age, and he had his first lessons on the instrument from his father, who was in the shipping trade but was an accomplished performer on the mandoline.
A period of study in Parma with Alessandro Rolla and Gaspara Ghiretti followed, and in 1797 Paganini, accompanied by his father, embarked on the first of his many concert tours.

This never before issued recital was given in 1954, when Zino Francescatti was at the peak of his formidable powers.

 The Violinist Niccolò Paganini by INGRES, Jean-Auguste-Dominique
Ingres, himself a talented violinist, drew a portrait of Niccolò Paganini - at that stage at the very beginning of his career - probably as a reminder of concerts the two friends had performed together.
His portrait drawings are remarkable for their psychological empathy and the enormous subtlety with which light and surface area are treated.
