6. Paganini - Sonata No. 12 in E minor
If Paganini's Sonata No. 12 were background music in a dimly lit tapas bar, it might sound a little like this. It's pretty different from the Romantic original (a drum beat and a sultry electric guitar'll do that to a piece of Paganini) but the intensity of Garrett's playing still shines through to create a surprisingly powerful piece of music.
