Evening Masterworks: Nicolo Paganini's Violin Concerto No. 2 “La Campanella”

Tonight, our Evening Masterwork is the Violin Concerto No. 2 by Nicolo Paganini, which has the nickname “La Campanella.” The nickname, which means “The Bell,” comes from the bell-like effects featured throughout the work in both the solo and orchestral parts. Moments of the concerto also evoke the imagery of Italian folk songs. Join us tonight at 7 for our Evening Masterwork on Classical WSMR 89.1 and 103.9.
