Summary/Abstract: The article examines the role and significance of violin etudes of the 19th century in the evolution of European performing art. The contribution of the figure of N. Paganini and his creative work in the process of transition between the eras of classicism and romanticism has been determined. It has been noted that the artistic and aesthetic views of the Genoese virtuoso, which significantly exceeded the capabilities of his contemporaries, reoriented the didactic material. On the example of the etude collections of P. Rode and J. Dont – representatives of schools of various musical arts – it has been found that the opuses of the educational direction usually reflect the real state of performance of a certain historical period, the complex process of coexistence of the established tradition and innovations, reassessment of ideas about the semantic and technical potential of the violin.
