Ridout: Concertino For Alto Saxophone & Piano (Emerson)
Alan Ridout was born in Kent in 1934. He began to learn the piano at the age of nine and by the age of twelve he had gained a distinction in Grade VIII. More important to his future career was that by the same age he had written over a hundred works: dramatic music, orchestral works (there was a symphony) and numerous concertante pieces, chamber music, piano music, songs and choral settings. He was allowed to leave Haberdashers'' Aske''s School as soon as he was 15 to begin some six years professional music study. Two years were spent at the Guildhall School of Music where, apart from composition, he continued his piano studies and also studied conducting. His primary interest in composition then took him to the Royal College of Music where he worked for two years with Gordon Jacob and a further two with Herbert Howells.
By the time he left the R.C.M. at the age of 20 a good number of his works had been performed, mainly at concerts of the Society for the Promotion of New Music.
