One of his early works is a scordatura "Sonata" actually based on one theme in three variations played by tuning the G string up a minor third and was composed for the wife of a man he was instructing, the sister of its namesake, Napoleon. After performing a double concerto with a colleague at La Scala, he said that Lafont was good but not exciting. He wrote over 100 pieces for guitar but is better known for another instrument. For 10 points, name this composer of Twenty-Four Caprices, a violin virtuoso.
