Nathan Milstein Paganiniana Variations for Solo Violin
Violin: Ka Chun Leung
As a transcriber and composer, Milstein arranged many works for violin and wrote his own cadenzas for many concertos. He was obsessed with articulating each note perfectly and would often spend long periods of time working out fingerings which would make passages sound more articulated. One of his best-known compositions is Paganiniana, a set of variations on various themes from the works of Niccolò Paganini. Recorded on 24th April 2021 in Boston.
