Niccolò Paganini’s 'Caprices', one of the most demanding cycles in the violin repertoire, continue to pose a challenge for many violinists, as they did in the year of their publication, 1820. These 24 miniature showpieces had little to do with the original educational character of the genre. On the contrary, they were a virtuosic display of the skills of their composer, who would remain unrivalled to this day. Though Paganini’s 'Caprices' did not occupy a major place in Henryk Wieniawski’s concert repertoire, they were well known to him. Extremely valuable in this respect is the copy of the Caprices now held in the library of the Conservatoire Royal de Musique in Brussels, which bears traces of use by the Polish violinist. I take this copy of the Caprices as the starting point for analysis of the sources of his early fascination with Paganini’s performance style. I briefly discuss Wieniawski’s education in Joseph Lambert Massart’s class at the Paris Conservatoire, his interest in Apolinary Kątski’s manner of playing and his stay with Karol Lipiński in Dresden. I also address the role of Paganini’s 'Caprices' in Wieniawski’s work as a teacher at the St Petersburg and Brussels conservatories. At the centre of my article is a presentation of the Brussels copy of the Caprices, in terms of both the history of the source and the scope of Wieniawski’s interference in the original musical material of the edition. This analysis sheds valuable light on Wieniawski’s performance style, rarely considered in the subject literature.

Kaprysy Niccolò Paganiniego – jedne z najbardziej wymagających w literaturze wiolinistycznej utworów – wciąż stanowią wyzwanie dla wielu współczesnych skrzypków. Nie inaczej było w 1820 roku, gdy zostały opublikowane. Dwadzieścia cztery popisowe miniatury niewiele bowiem miały wspólnego z ćwiczebnym charakterem, leżącym u podstaw tego gatunku. Przeciwnie, stanowiły wirtuozowski popis ich twórcy, który miał pozostać niedościgniony. Kaprysy Paganiniego nie zajmowały ważnego miejsca w repertuarze koncertowym Henryka Wieniawskiego. Były mu jednak dobrze znane. Niezwykle cenne źródło informacji w tym zakresie stanowi egzemplarz Kaprysów przechowywany w bibliotece Conservatoire de Musique w Brukseli, w którym ślad pozostawił po sobie polski skrzypek. Wydanie to stało się przyczynkiem do podjęcia refleksji na temat źródeł młodzieńczej fascynacji Wieniawskiego stylem gry Niccolò Paganiniego – omówiono pokrótce edukację polskiego skrzypka w klasie Josepha Lamberta Massarta w Konserwatorium Paryskim, jego zainteresowanie grą Apolinarego Kątskiego oraz pobyt u Karola Lipińskiego w Dreźnie. Podjęto także wątek kaprysów Paganiniego w pracy pedagogicznej Wieniawskiego w konserwatoriach w Petersburgu i Brukseli. Punkt zasadniczy artykułu stanowi omówienie egzemplarza Kaprysów z Brukseli, zarówno pod względem historii źródła, jak i zakresu ingerencji Wieniawskiego w pierwotną materię wydania. Analiza ta dostarcza nam niezwykle cennej wiedzy na rzadko podejmowany w literaturze przedmiotu temat stylu wykonawczego Henryka Wieniawskiego.

Infant prodigies were a common phenomenon in the 19th century. They astonished the audience not only through their impressive abilities, but also the innocent beauty and the youthful grace. The perfect example of this is Apolinary Kątski (1826–1879), a violin virtuoso and a composer, known mainly as the founder of the Institute of Music in Warsaw, who, since he was three, was recognizable in concert halls all over Europe. According to the author, the early stage of the violinist’s activity requires more attention. The presented article sketches the path of young Apolinary’s life from the moment of his first performance in 1829 to May 1838, when he was granted with the famous recommendation of Niccolò Paganini. It introduced him to numerous concert halls of Europe and positively influenced his further artistic activity. The hereby presented paper makes an attempt to find out the date and place of birth of Kątski in the context of the rich musical activity of his family members. It also shows the first artistic tours of the young virtuoso against the background of his artistically talented siblings: a violinist Karol, pianists Stanisław and Antoni, and a singer Eugenia. The crucial moment are reflections on the stay of the family in Paris and their first performances in the musical centre of Europe as well as contacts of the young violinist with Niccolò Paganini. The studies on the correspondence of the father of the virtuoso, Grzegorz Kątski, and research on the foreign newspapers let the author reconstruct the life of Apolinary Kątski in the very first stage of his musical activity and place him in the context of infant prodigies of the 18th and 19th centuries.
