Ep. 28: Niccòlo Paganini

Today we have a special guest with us, and we are diving into the life and times of Niccolò Paganini, violin virtuoso and composer! Although we learn all about the incredible things he contributed to violin technique in this episode, we also discuss a whole bunch of weird and wacky things about him. He was a character. For most of his adult life, had no teeth, HUGE hands, an extremely strong attachment to his guitar, and people thought he made a pact with the devil. Curious? Give it a listen, you won’t regret it!
