Caprices No.'s 1 - 6 for unaccompanied violin are among Mark O'Connor's most critically acclaimed work. Receiving great interest from performers, teachers and students of the violin, O'Connor has contributed music here which will challenge even the most gifted virtuoso. O'Connor's caprices, like Nicolo Paganini's before and Pietre Locatelli before him, push the violin into a new direction, musically and technically, furthering the possibilities of the instrument.

  • Wonderful musician ...

    Wonderful musician and composer. Heard him at Winfield, winning the national flatpicking championship long, long ago...later the fiddling championship...apparently has made the switch to solely fiddle playing due to medical condition which precludes him from flatpicking any longer...he is a kind, soft=spoken person who is respected greatly...nice, nice video
