Niccolo Paganini, born on the 17th October 1782 in Genoa?, Italy, was taught to
play the violin from a very young age. He gave his first public concert at the
age of 11, and was immediately recognized as a virtuoso. In his early teens he
studied under Rollo and Ghiretti, but he could not cope well with his success:
at the age of nineteen he was gambling and drinking. His career was saved by an
unknown lady, who took him to her estate, where he recovered and studied the
violin for three years.
