Acclaimed as "Paganini reincarnated" or "Paganini without the flaws," Sivori was regarded as the only pupil of violinist Niccolò Paganini

 

A virtuoso violinist and composer, Camillo Sivori was born on this day in 1815 in Genoa.

Sivori met Paganini when he was seven years old and began his career as a violin virtuoso at the age of 12.
