about

Caprice XXIV is a set of variations based on the theme of Niccolò Paganini’s famous 24th Caprice. It was started on a newly purchased ''Korg M1'' music workstation in 1991 - but abandoned a year later.

In 2021 a cassette recording of 3 unfinished tracks was found, enabling a digital version of each to be made. Over the next 18 months the discovered tracks were completed and another 8 composed using sketches which had been jotted down at random intervals during the previous 3 decades.

The album was finally completed in 2023 - almost 32 years after the work’s original conception.
