company description

At Caprice Records we are proud to be able to say that most Swedish professional musicians (in the classical, jazz and folk music genres) have at one time or the other taken part in our recordings.

At WOMEX 12 we like to present a rerelease of the legandary album Organic Music Society with Don Cherry (from 1973). For the first time released digitally on CD and also again available on LP. With original cover and artwork as well as new liner notes and photos.
We will also start rereleasing the series Music from, starting with Music from Bulgaria, Rumania and Greece (with Dómna Samíou).

From the catalogue we like to mention two important series in the folk and world music genres:

Musica Sveciae/Folk Music in Sweden
In collaboration with The Royal Swedish Academy of Music Caprice have released the Musica Sveciae anthology of Swedish music history, covering the period from ancient times to the beginning of the 20th century.
Music from...
Since the beginning of the 1990's, Caprice and Concerts Sweden in collaboration with Sida, has released music from different continents. Each year the project focuses on a developing country with interesting and relatively unknown music that is carefully selected to mirror the music life of yesterday and today in those countries the series represent. Vietnam, Ecuador, Honduras, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Uganda, Cape Verde, Tanzania, Mozambique, Macedonia and Montenegro.

Today Caprice have some of the most interesting Swedish folk music artists in our catalogue, to mention a few, Nåra, Draupner, Johan Hedin/Gunnar Idenstam and Jord, BOOT as well as Swedish/Greek Taximi and Swedish/Turkish Efkar.
