This nightmarish comedy follows violin virtuoso Nicolo Paganini through a series of depraved adventures in love and music. Murdered lovers, ominous clockmakers, and a barbershop quartet contribute to the dreamlike strangeness of this inventive farce, which features many of Paganini's own caprices. As the absurd journey begins, the virtuoso asks, "which variation leads to salvation and which to damnation?" Throughout the piece, Paganini plays variation upon variation, as he and the playwright, Don Nigro, struggle to answer this impossible question.*
