24 AMERICAN CAPRICES | THE VIOLIN CHANNEL - FEATURE
Curtis Stewart's New Album "24 American Caprices"
The album presents Stewart's cycle of twenty-four virtuoso caprices for the solo violin, a nod to Niccolo Paganini's famous twenty-four caprices. Stewart's compositions pay tribute to seminal recordings and artists that shaped his own experience of American musical culture, incorporating jazz, rap, R&B, folk, pop, and soul influences into the virtuoso violin tradition.
