Paganini 24 Caprices

Album by Ruggiero Ricci & Niccolò Paganini

Paganini: 24 Caprices is an album of solo violin works by Italian-American violinist Ruggiero Ricci, released in 1947. The recording presents Paganini's virtuosic solo repertoire in a technically demanding Romantic-virtuoso style, emphasising rapid passagework, extended left-hand techniques and varied bow articulations, and was one of Ricci's early complete commercial recordings of these caprices, situating it within mid-20th-century recorded violin repertoire.
