Born on 27 October 1782, Niccolò Paganini became one of the most celebrated violinists in music history. His extraordinary technique, dramatic performances and seemingly impossible compositions amazed audiences across Europe and helped transform the violin into an instrument capable of astonishing virtuosity and emotional expression.
Paganini was not only a brilliant performer but also a composer whose works continue to challenge musicians today. His famous 24 Caprices for Solo Violin remain among the most demanding pieces in the violin repertoire, while his music inspired generations of composers who followed him.
This November, you can discover the legacy of this remarkable Italian musician at Homage to Paganini by Candlelight in Tbilisi. On 14 November at 20:00, violinist Konstantine Gotsiridze and pianist David Ketsbaya will perform at the National Parliamentary Library of Georgia, presenting works by Paganini, Massenet, Franck and other composers by candlelight.
