Niccolo Paganini (1782-1840) was the most celebrated musician the first half of nineteenth century Europe. A consummate performer on the violin, his bold on-stage persona contrasted with his notoriously secretive private life. Groomed by his father to be a musician in the opera orchestra, he sought another existence, as a virtuoso violinist. Mired in an obsessive quest to realize his own destiny, he recklessly pursued a life of excess. Decades later, an American connection leads to revealing the true nature of this man widely recognized as the first of his kind.

Scientific Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Musicology - Miscellaneous, grade: 1st class, Royal Holloway, University of London (University of London), course: Research, language: English, abstract: This study constitutes a unique and dedicated attempt to address the extent to which Paganini’s character has been misrepresented to date. Making detailed reference to biographies and previous writings on Paganini, it dismantles the myth-making surrounding the violinist's legendary status, and overturns the common perceptions of Paganini as a gambler, compulsive womanizer, murderer, wrecker of relationships, miser, vulgarian and heathen. It attempts to depict the ‘real’ Paganini, and demonstrates that there is little, if any, justification for the excessive calumny to which the renowned violinist was subjected in his lifetime and beyond.
