The composition of 24 Caprices for the solo instrument have constituted a point of arrival for many a composer since the time of Locatelli and Paganini. Almost each relevant instrument of the orchestra has received its collection of Caprices, just think of Pierre Rode, Lvov Aleksey or Henry Marteau for the violin, Alfredo Carlo Piatti for the cello, Theobald Boehem and Philip Seydler for the flute, Marco Aurelio Zani de Ferranti for the guitar – the list could go on. The present collection of 24 Caprices shuns academicism and educational intent. Instead, Nino Cotone explores the potential of his instrument and its technical limitations based on over 200 years of violin literature, providing a fascinating and personal interpretation.
Nino Cotone is an Italian musician, composer and music therapist.
His main instrument of interest has always been the violin, but he also plays the piano, the electric guitar and the Hang drum. After graduating from G. Verdi conservatoire in Como in 2000, Nino has consistently performed his own original compositions, successfully working with different music genres, and has recorded more than 20 albums to date with several ensembles.
Nino has been performing in Europe and the USA for 20 years, and has also composed soundtracks for cinema, ranging from old silent films to contemporary independent films. In 2009, he started composing for solo violin and has since recorded five albums of original Caprices.
Currently, he specializes as a music therapist, taking care of people with severe disabilities.
