Paganini, Nicoló

Nicolo Paganini (1782-1840) was an Italian violinist, guitarist and composer. He composed and played very technically demanding violin compositions, which even today will be played by only a few violin masters. There are many stories about Paganini that cannot be verified, but thanks to them, Paganini is an almost mythical figure in the music world, and is often considered the greatest violin virtuoso of all time.
