Clarie Chen plays Paganini Violin Concerto Mvt 1 | Live Performance | California Institute of Music

Clarie Chen performing Niccolò Paganini’s legendary Violin Concerto No. 1 in D major, Op. 6, Mvt. 1 🎻✨ Niccolò Paganini’s 1st Concerto is a monumental pillar of the 19th-century violin repertoire. Originally composed with scordatura tuning—raising the orchestra and soloist by a semitone to give the instrument extraordinary brilliance—the concerto brilliantly unites dazzling virtuosic pyrotechnics (including double-stop harmonics, flying spiccato, and lightning-fast runs) with lush, soaring Italian bel canto lyricism. Clarie is a student of Pasha Tseitlin, Michael Tseitlin, and Irina Tseitlin at the California Institute of Music in San Diego. 🎹 Pianist: Yulia Atoyan Subscribe to the California Institute of Music channel for full recital showcases, virtuoso student spotlights, and classical masterclasses! #ClarieChen #Paganini #ViolinConcerto #CaliforniaInstituteOfMusic #SanDiego #ClassicalMusic #ViolinPerformance #VirtuosoViolin #ClassicalViolin
