Violin virtuoso Paganini was a bit of a rock star in his day – an extraordinary violinist. His faultless technique was so astonishing to the audiences of his day that many believed he must have made a pact with the devil. Paganini’s 24 Caprices push the limits of any violinist’s technique, exploiting every kind of violin wizardry. In this programme virtuoso Fenella Humphreys places Paganini’s music side by side with a feast of other exciting Caprices and Etudes.
