*****MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL (SUMMER 2021) MARC ROCHESTER*****(REVIEW)

“There are precious few saxophone concertos around, so any new one is worthy of interest; and O’Riordan’s is certainly a work worth investigating. It must be said that, for much of this 20-minute work, he seems so intent on moving away from the saxophone’s traditional stomping ground of jazz, that it often seems dauntingly dark and heavyweight. It comes as a bit of a surprise, therefore, to read that it was, to an extent, inspired by Orff’s Carmina burana. You will search in vain for musical connections, but the influence is found in the Latinate title of the work and of its four movements. The short third movement – “Tripudo” – is the lightest of the three, and in the fourth (“Demum”), after a desolate violin solo, beautifully played here by Scott Conklin, there is, in the jagged, angular rhythms, and foot-tripping syncopations, something quite invigorating. There is a lot of clever and effective writing here, and Tse is a splendidly fluent and masterful advocate for this new concerto.”
