Kapriol’!’s first album came out on the ocassion of their third concert. This was at KEF in Denmark.
The Frisian band Kapriol’! (from the Netherlands) came spontaneously into life during folkdance
evenings. The group’s musicians had already played on many festive stages.
Marita and Marian played for many years in the Esperanto-group Kajto, and now they form the duo
Marianta, with flutes, accordeon, and song.
Ad and Ruger have acquired a great deal of experience in groups such as Blue Tape Band, 60/60
(Ad), Kalis and Sjock (Rutger).
All four of them form the new group Kapriol’! presenting a rich swinging program of songs and
"balfolk" dance melodies that originate from the traditional Frisian repertory, or their
own compositions.
Succinctly, they play traditional music with modern instruments, and their own compositions
with old-time instruments.
This is all combined with songs in several voices and multicolored arrangements. And
improvisation is also an important element.
Their "balfolk" repertory consists of traditional dances, Scottishes, polkas,
walzes and mazurkas, and lively dances such as bourrées and andros and also round dances and
jigs, where the partners continually change.
