Album insights

Spanish violinist María Dueñas releases her second album on Deutsche Grammophon, dedicated to Nicolò Paganini's legendary 24 Caprices. Alongside these notoriously challenging pieces for her instrument, Dueñas includes a selection of later works inspired by Paganini, as well as compositions from Berlioz, Kreisler, and Gabriela Ortiz. Dueñas views Paganini's 24 Caprices as a milestone for every violinist, having grown up listening to and performing them. Beyond Paganini, she seeks to unite various caprices in music history, ranging from Saint-Saëns' Rondo Capriccioso to contemporary works like those by Cervelló. The album is set to release in digital, CD, and vinyl formats.
