PAGANINI 24 CAPRICCI OP.1 VIOLIN
The 24 “Caprices” by Paganini form a coherent group of works which require the highest degree of technical expertise. Since their publication in 1817 the “Caprices” have remained the defining milestone of violin technique.
Bärenreiter’s scholarly-critical edition is based on the autograph and early prints from various European publishers. These simple pieces are each 16 measures in length and exploit various techniques, thus providing a wonderful addition to the solo violin repertoire.
This edition offers a spacious layout with many fold-out pages allowing plenty of room to add personal fingering and bowing. A historical introduction in English and German discusses the genesis of the works and traces their influence on violin virtuosos. A source description and critical commentary round out this unique edition.
