Dale Kavanagh enjoys a musical challenge; she plays with profound sensitivity, clarity and brilliance. On this CD she has selected Classical-Romantic repertoire in order to demonstrate her flawless technique. At the same time, her choice of composers says it all: anyone who is willing to take on Paganini has a passion for wild runs, arpeggios and energetic rhythms. Dale Kavanagh especially admires Paganini, who wrote more for the guitar than for the violin: "For me, the contrast between lyric melodies and untamed dynamics, chords and scales are a source of immeasurable delight."
