Niccolò Paganini - Caprice no. 13 op. 1 for violin solo 파가니니 카프리스 13번 || パガニーニ - 奇想曲 第13番 (悪魔の微笑み) || Паганини Каприс 13 || 帕格尼尼随想曲13 Piotr Milewski is a prize-winner of Queen Elisabeth, Wieniawski, Paganini & Sibelius international violin competitions. As a winner of The Juilliard Concerto Competition he performed Prokofiev Concerto in D-major at Alice Tully Hall. He performed the Wieniawski f-sharp minor concerto at the Musikverein Hall in Vienna. "Strong, solid soloist, Piotr Milewski" "can play with a warm, sure tone, and shape phrases in a vigorous, natural sounding way ... played with the physical security one expects from every contest winner but in a full blooded, engaging manner that was very much of his own ... a performance full of impulsive, excited moments ... an ability to create washes of impressionistic sounds ... a spirited, rhythmically live rendition." The New York Times "Brilliant Start ... It was Milewski's Vienna debut which made the evening worthwhile. Not only technically is he extremely talented, but proved in the Wieniawski to have vital musicality with fine sense of rhythm and phrasing." Wiener Presse (Vienna) "Self-confident Polish violinist, Piotr Milewski, showed individual drive, technical bravura and warm musicality. A secure virtuoso ... rarely has Paganini's Caprice been heard with such a clear sound, temperament and technical security. Bach's g-minor Adagio was performed with meditative calmness and beauty which makes the great music really great." Stuttgarter Zeitung (Germany) "Piotr Milewski ennobled his solo part with tricky double stops and virtuoso gestures. A Paganini with sensitivity." Basler Zeitung (Basel, Switzerland)
