CAPRICE
Caprice is a neo-classical ensemble from Russia distinguished by Inna Brejestovskaya’s heavenly voice and acoustic sound (harp, flute, clarinet, violin, cello) with a touch of electronics. All music is composed by Anton Brejestovski.
Probably the best known band’s project is the Elven trilogy – an attempt to show what the music of the parallel world of Faerie sounds like. The first two CDs are music illustrations to JRR Tolkien's novels, while the third part of the trilogy is sung in the unique language of Laoris.
The new album, Kywitt! Kywitt!. is in a way experimental: the sound has become more diverse with the addition of electronics and guitars, and the music more eccentric.
Apart from CD releases Anton Brejestovski has worked as a composer for other numerous music projects.
Laoris is the language of faeries, the creatures whose music is represented on some of Caprice albums.
Laoris was created, or to put it more precisely, perceived by Anton Brejestovski between 2001 and 2005. To find more info on the language of laoris, please visit Caprice's website On the left you can see the Laoris script - this picture is part of the lyrics from the 2005 album Tales of the Uninvited.
Have seen dawn and sunset on moors and windy hills Coming in solemn beauty like slow old tunes of Spain: I have seen the lady April bringing in the daffodils, Bringing the springing grass and the soft warm April rain.
I have heard the song of the blossoms and the old chant of the sea, And seen strange lands from under the arched white sails of ships; But the loveliest things of beauty God ever has showed to me Are her voice, and her hair, and eyes, and the dear red curve of her lips.
