The 24 Caprices

Album by Niccolò Paganini & Michael Rabin

The 24 Caprices are a set of 24 solo violin caprices by Italian composer Niccolò Paganini, published in 1819. The pieces showcase virtuosic solo violin technique, exploring extended techniques such as left-hand pizzicato, rapid arpeggios and ricochet bowing, and they represent a key development in Romantic-era violin virtuosity and the solo repertoire.
First released: 8th April 2003
