About

This is an album largely consisting of solo violin works by Paganini, but also with two Paganini works for violin and piano. Argentine violinist Tomas Cotik, who has made a number of recordings for Centaur, is the ideal performer for these works.

Critic reviews

  • “Cotik succeeds convincingly in creating a lively and intuitive style of playing that seems to be shaped by the moment and also makes audible the charm of an exploration free of fixed notes.”
