Trivia:
During the tempo of his concerts, Paganini had a showpiece that never failed to astonish his audience. He would snap one string of his violin, but continue playing with ever more force until the second string snapped. Then, at the climax, the third string would snap and he would finish with just the low string left. See more »Trademark:
