<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Here, in one large-format playing edition, are Paganini's innovative <i>Caprices</i> and Wieniawski's much-admired collections, <i>L'Ecole Moderne</i> and <i>Etudes Caprices</i>. The three scores offer hours of rigorous practice and rehearsal.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Paganini and Wieniawski were among the nineteenth century's most famous violin virtuosos and composed some of the solo violin repertoire's most treasured works. Here, in one large-format playing edition, are three of their most celebrated works for solo violin: Paganini's innovative <i>Caprices, </i>Op. 1, and Wieniawski's much-admired collections, <i>L'Ecole Moderne, </i>Op. 10, and <i>Etudes Caprices, </i>Op. 18. <br>Nicoló Paganini (1782-1840) developed a phenomenal playing technique, and literally transformed violin playing with his dazzling technical breakthroughs -- fingered octaves, double-, triple-, and quadruple-stop chords, and "ricochet" bowings among them. His twenty-four <i>Caprices, </i> reprinted here from the definitive C. F. Peters edition, are a virtual textbook summation of his extraordinary achievements.<br>Henryk Wieniawski (1835-80) greatly enriched the violin literature with his highly individual style, combining Paganini's technical advances with a soaring Romanticism and distinctive Slavonic coloring. His collections of etudes, reprinted here from authoritative editions, are, like Paganini's <i>Caprices, </i> among the most demanding works in the solo violin repertory and essential parts of every violinist's training.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Nicolo Paganini (1782-1840) developed a phenomenal technique and transformed violin playing with his dazzling technical breakthroughs.
