About

A contemporary of Louis-François Guiguer, son of a King’s Officer and violinist in Paris, Nicolas Capron was considered one of the most brilliant pupils of Pierre Gaviniès, who had apparently himself received advice from Jean-Marie Leclair. This possible filiation is illustrated in the eulogy to the memory of the latter by Monsieur du Rozoi in the November 1764 edition of the Mercure: “if France has Gaviniés and Caprons, it is thanks to his works”. Nicolas Capron undoubtedly holds a very special place among the great French violonists.
