Ignaz Friedman - Paganini Variations (audio + sheet music) 

Another of the great pianists from the early 20th century to pass through the formative hands of Leschetizky was the Polish-born Ignaz Friedman (1882-1948). Famed as a performer who brought colour and vibrancy to anything he played, he was also a composer and arranger of considerable repute. His Studies on a Theme by Paganini, Op. 47b are a set of 17 variations on the Caprice No. 24. Without losing any of the appeal of Paganini’s original, they successfully transfer the world of the violin to the piano keyboard in a manner that is entirely felicitous.
