1. Father

Paganini was born in Genoa on October 27th, 1782.

he had a very unhappy childhood.

My father, Antonio Paganini, runs a small grocery store, and the income in the store is not enough even to meet the needs of the whole family. Moreover, he is a gambler who gambles for his life. This bad habit makes him more and more greedy and wants to make a fortune.

this man is prone to lose his temper at the touch, and he is very angry. When he is calm, he is simply a tyrant in this family.

Antonio likes music very much, but his ability is only enough to pick up mandolin and play a folk tune at home or in a small circle of friends.

when he found an unusual talent in his son, he almost became an idiot with excitement.

Since then, my son has become a living playing card in his hand, and he can gamble with his life to win or lose.

He began to teach nicolo himself. At first, he taught his children to play mandolin and guitar, and then he taught him to play violin, forcing him to practice from early morning until late at night. If he felt that the child didn't seem to work hard enough, he simply didn't leave him anything to eat.

The extremely heavy schoolwork has damaged nicolo's health; Tuberculosis and neurasthenia spread step by step on him.

already weakened physique is easy to be at the mercy of illness.

Measles and scarlet fever almost killed him again; After that, nicolo never got rid of this tonic syncope and muscle spasms from time to time.

2. Mother

Mother-Tereza Boraldo really loves her children, but this obedient woman is a simple-minded farmer, who has always believed in God and paid attention to superstition. Almost from the time when nicolo landed, she predicted with certainty that the baby would have a bright future and become a great musician in the future.
