Cathal Roche – Essential Tremors CD
$17.00
In stock
‘Essential Tremors’ is the debut solo showcase of Cathal Roche, an
improvising saxophonist based in Co. Sligo, in the Atlantic north west
of Ireland. The extended performance for baritone, alto, and soprano
saxophones was recorded at St George’s Church and Heritage Centre,
Carrick on Shannon, 2021, in the Nyahh label’s native Co. Leitrim, by
Willie Stewart.Here, left
to his own devices, Roche colours the air with a seductive display of
versatility and virtuosity; initially hovering around liminal levels of
extended instrumentals, and stealthily growing to a more full-bodied
silhouette, and around the 1o minute mark commanding swarming dynamics
comparable to Alex Zhang Hungtai. Cathal’s disciplined control of volume and tone is key to its
grip, as he proceeds, pregnant with noirish dread, to blow ribbons of
anguished blues – sax keys audible in the space – that hits all the
right notes for lovers of late night musical introspection. Comes in lovely gatefold card with art by Alan Doyle
