Introduction
English

Capriccio for violin and organ develops a lively and dancing theme in an abridged sonata form. The exposition opens out through developing thematic derivations of this joyful theme on the violin. A contrasting and sensual second theme, with soft percussive accompaniment on the organ, leads to a varied recapitulation of both ideas before the brilliant coda.
