TheViolin Concerto No. 2 in B minor,Op.7, was composed byNiccol Paganiniin Italy in1826. In his Second Concerto, Paganini holds back on the demonstration ofvirtuosityin favor of greater individuality in the melodic style. The third movement of Paganini’s Second Concerto owes its nickname “La Campanella” or “La Clochette” to the little bell which Paganini prescribes to presage each recurrence of the rondo theme. The character of the bell is also imitated in the orchestra and in some of the soloist’s passages featuring harmonics. The outcome is a very transparent texture, which gains extra charm ofgypsycoloration of the rondo theme. This movement has served as the basis of compositions by other composers, such as the tude S. 140 No. 3 “La campanella” byLiszt, andStrauss I’sWalzer la Paganini Op. 11.
