Paganini: Violin Concerto No. 1

Itzhak Perlman, born in 1945, is the supreme violinist of his time. In works composed by Nicolò Paganini and Pablo de Sarasate - two virtuosi who in their own eras defined the art of the violin - Itzhak Perlman, in the recording that launched his Warner Classics catalogue, offers both dazzling brilliance and enticing lyricism.
