CAPRA
a cycle of violin solo pieces.
In 1987 I started a series of violin solo pieces. The first "Capra 1" was inspired by a Nepalesian violinist, a guest in Hamburg Musikhochschule. I was completely fascinated by his play without a score, improvising on fixed speech-like patterns, i suppose. This is what I wanted to reach in my commentary on his music. To talk freely, though conform with self-imposed rules, only partly
known to me. My "Capra" series is both full of spontaneity and full of "rules" of many musics from all over the world. In later "Capras" I very often refer to Just Intonation.
