Paganini's Devout Home Practice Method and Obsessive Focus
The narrative describes Paganini's private practice routine when unbothered, starting with calm posture then removing his coat and examining his violin, bow, and resin. He improvises for about five minutes, then plays diatonic scales with brilliance, followed by flawless chromatic passages across keys. He guards his collar with a cloth, strengthens his bow arm by wrist shakes, then performs new passages of extraordinary beauty, showing total devotion before occasionally muttering to himself and warning against instrument switching. He recalls spoiling his fingers from a tenor part in a quartet and returning to the violin for steady practice to restore accuracy.
