Victor Kissine's 'Caprice' was performed at the Brussels concert hall of Flagey in May 2012 by 24 semifinalists at the Belgian Queen Elisabeth Music Competition. 'Although commissioned by and composed for a competition as compulsory piece, I was inspired by very personal emotions in connection with two friends, Philippe Hirschhorn and Gidon Kremer. The title, obviously, refers to the classical tradition of this form which seems to me quite 'capricious' and alternates between different paradoxical dimensions in the course of the piece.' (Victor Kissine)
