The fact that he had received the violin from Paganini was an understandable motive for the special attachment he felt and further indication of their artistic ties.
Shortly after Sivori's death in 1894, his heirs donated the violin to the City of Genoa.
Unlike the Cannone, the Sivori was left practically unused until the City, thanks to the sponsorship of Ansaldo S.p.A. in 1992, entrusted it to the violinmaker Renato Scrollavezza for restoration.

 Stanford: Piano Quintet & String Quintet No 1
Growing up in his native Dublin in the 1850s and ’60s, Stanford was no stranger to high-quality chamber music, even if visits to Ireland’s capital by pre-eminent executants of the genre were sporadic.
As a teenager he recalled with affection and excitement the solo recitals of Anton Rubinstein, Sigismund Thalberg and Charles Hallé, and string players such as Camillo Sivori, Ludwig Strauss, Henry Vieuxtemps, Alfredo Piatti and of course Joseph Joachim, a friend of his father.
Stanford’s passion and mastery of the idiom are evident in the substantial catalogue of chamber music he produced throughout his life.

 The Musical Examiner (1842-1844)
The subjects of leading articles are treated in depth and address the major concerns of the period: superficial music, excessive virtuosity, the British preference for foreign rather than native composers and performers, inadequate English-language translations of foreign-language texts, and the much-needed reform of musical societies.
Much space is also given over to reviews of performances presented by the leading musical institutions; namely, the Philharmonic Society, the Sacred Harmonic Society, the Concerts of Ancient Music and the Royal Academy of Music.
Controversial topics are treated in the correspondence sections; these include the heated dispute between the violinists Camillo Sivori and Ernst concerning the authorship of the variations on the Carnaval de Venise, and the vitriolic exchange between Charles Stephens and George French Flowers on the subject of counterpoint.

 Midnight on the Water -- Mark O'Connor
One report from a tour was that he was never observed to practice; he just performed rehearsals.
Paganini, however, insisted that his prized student Camillo Sivori arduously grind out daily scales, although Sivori said that neither he nor anyone he knew had ever heard his teacher practice anything at all.
Paganini was quoted as saying, "I have labored enough to acquire my talent; it is time to rest." Arthur Hartman thinks that Paganini's so called "secret" was that he practiced mentally, without the instrument in his hands, and therefore did not need the endless hours of physical practice.

American publishers did in fact issue many works by Carulli, Carcassi, Küffner etc, but in the case of lesser luminaries of European extraction, the person had to establish a local reputation in America before a publisher would invest in him.
A good example of this is the American publication of several works by Marco Aurelio Zani de Ferranti, issued by the New York publisher Ernst in 1848, during the course of Zani de Ferranti’s American tour which he undertook together with Paganini’s protégé Camillo Sivori.
Once Zani de Ferranti left the United States and went back to Europe, there were no more American editions of his music.
