Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana Howard Griffiths, conductor Manrico Padovani (violin) *Recordings (live): October 2012 (Romania)*, September 2014 (Korea)**, date unknown (Switzerland)*** Manrico Padovani is a Swiss violinist of Italian origin who was first introduced to the violin at the age of 12 after watching a film about Paganini's life and has since considered Paganini his ideal musician. He has been described as a "magician of the violin" and a "devilish violinist" for his musical intensity, technical agility, and the impression he makes on his concert audiences, and a collection of live recordings of him playing Paganini's concertos has finally appeared.The two violin concertos with Boris Pernod are also excellent performances that convey the enthusiasm of the live performance. In particular, the "Sonata with Variations on a Theme by Weigl" has been recorded in many piano accompaniment versions, and this live recording with orchestra is a valuable one. (Tokyo M-Plus)
