Biography

Salvatore Accardo (Knight Grand Cross, born 26 September 1941 in Turin, northern Italy) is an Italian violinist and conductor, who is known for his interpretations of the works of Niccolò Paganini.

Accardo owns one Stradivarius violin, the "Hart ex Francescatti" (1727) and had the "Firebird ex Saint-Exupéry" (1718).

Accardo studied violin in the southern Italian city of Naples in the 1950s. He gave his first professional recital at the age of 13 performing Paganini's Capricci. In 1958 Accardo became the first prize winner of the Paganini Competition in Genoa.

In the 1970s he was a leader of the celebrated Italian chamber orchestra "I Musici" (1972-1977).

After he was a student in Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena, he taught there from 1973 to 1980.

Accardo founded the Accardo Quartet in 1992 and he was one of the founders of the Walter Stauffer Academy in 1986.

He founded the Settimane Musicali Internazionali in Naples and the Cremona String Festival in 1971, and in 1996, he re-founded the Orchestra da Camera Italiana (O.C.I.), whose members are the best pupils of the Walter Stauffer Academy. The most famous pupils are Alessio Bidoli, Franco Mezzena and Anastasiya Petryshak.

He performed the music of Paganini for the soundtrack of the 1989 film Kinski Paganini.

In 2004, he came back to Siena, and now he teaches in Accademia Musicale Chigiana.
