PAGANINI
The points of intersection between the world-famous musician and the local territory will be the main focus of our immersive, multimedia journey made of anecdotes, history, music and sounds. Through these sources, not only will we get to explore the Maestro Paganini known to the public, but we will meet Niccolò, a man who lived his life between virtue and excess, poor health and a resilient spirit which ultimately led him to play in the greatest European theatres and impress every audience with his virtuosity.
