Nicolò Paganini’s Minuetto e Trio in F sharp major for violin and viola - the autograph manuscript of which is preserved in the Biblioteca Casanatense in Rome - is, together with his Sonata a violino e viola (M.S. 108), one of the rare pieces the Genoese composer wrote for this particular ensemble. In addition to expanding Paganini’s treasured catalogue, its rediscovery could provide scholars with new insights into the famed virtuoso’s chamber music output.
