Paganini Caprice 24 + piano part
on: July 27, 2007, 10:31:28 AM
Hi, I'm looking for this caprice by Paganini, but with a piano part. So for violin and piano. I know it exists but I can't find it.
Currently learing:
- Chopin: Ballade No.3
- Scriabin: Etude Op. 8 No. 2
- Rachmaninoff: Etude Op. 33 No. 6
- Bach: P&F No 21 WTC I

8 of them were transcribed by Novacek for violin and piano.

Hopefully the one you want is enclosed within the following attachment.

It is the most famous Caprice No.24. 
Here you can watch it by Heifetz + piano:





Anyone who can help me?

I wish you had shown me that clip yesterday, as the first 5 seconds of it shows you the cover of the sheet music.

The transcription was evidently done by Leopold Auer and there is a copy at the Sibley library, who will give you a digital copy free of charge.

Simply make a request to the following e mail.

Easy is it not.

There are also exquisite transcriptions for violin and piano of three of the 24 Paganini Caprices by Szymanowski; do get these!

Best,
