Info zu The Spirit of Paganini

This double-album set brings to completion Dynamic’s project to record Nicolò Paganini’s entire output. The programme includes notable rarities such as the Sonata Napoléon MS. 5, the splendid Maestosa Suonata Sentimentale MS. 51, Sonata movimento perpetuo M.S 66 and La Primavera MS. 73, all in performances that faithfully follow Paganini’s original manuscripts. The set also features an exciting interpretation of the rare Concerto No. 3 in E major MS. 50, perhaps one of the least performed of Paganini’s concertos, and the Caprice No. 24 in an interesting version with piano accompaniment. Mario Hossen received his musical education in Sofia, Vienna and Paris. He made his debut as a soloist with orchestra at the age of eight. Hailed for his incredible virtuosity and charismatic stage presence, Hossen’s repertoire covers the full stylistic range, from renaissance to classical, contemporary and jazz. The focus of Hossen’s musicological and artistic endeavours includes source research on Niccolò Paganini. Mario Hossen plays a 1749 violin by Giovanni Battista Guadagnini, on loan from the Austrian National Bank collection.
