Fodor made his reputation as a touring violin virtuoso but in spite of his star status he mainly composed duets for violin. Of the few solo works that exist, the caprices in this edition illustrate a solid musicality that harks back to the influence of his teacher Franz Benda. The first three caprices were published and copied widely while the fourth has been restored from a sole surviving manuscript copy and marks the first republication of the piece in almost two hundred years.
