24 Caprices

Album by Niccolò Paganini & María Dueñas

24 Caprices is a set of 24 solo violin caprices by the Italian composer Niccolò Paganini, composed between 1802 and 1817. They exemplify virtuosic Romantic violin writing—exploring techniques such as rapid arpeggios, left-hand pizzicato and double-stopping—and played a central role in establishing Paganini's reputation and advancing 19th-century violin technique and repertoire.
