World premiere - Tarrodi´s Andrum Juli with lyrics by Tomas Tranströmer
During the Baltic Sea Festival / Östersjöfestivalen the Swedish Radio Choir premiers Tarrodi´s Andrum Juli with lyrics by Tomas Tranströmer. The piece was commissioned by Sveriges Radio P2 and is premiered on August the 30th, 2012, at the Berwald Concert Hall. "Andrea Tarrodi översätter dikten "Andrum Juli" till vibrerande och bländande körlyrik ..." - Gunilla Brodrej, Expressen
"...Med långspunna linjer och skira klanger tar hon[Tarrodi] fasta på ljuset i dikten. Sönderbrutna stavelser alstrar rörelse, tonerna målar diskret ordet ”gungande”. Insomnandet i de surrealistiska slutraderna ackompanjeras av milda Jon Blund-klanger. Betagande framförande av Radiokören, uppdelad i dubbelkör."- Lars Hedblad, SvD more...

Tarrodi´s Flyttfåglar for oboe and strings and Lucioles for orchestra performed at the Berwald Concert Hall
The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra performs Tarrodi´s Lucioles for orchestra and Flyttfåglar for oboe and strings with soloist Emmanuel Laville at Berwaldhallen on May 31, 2012. Solar Flares by Katarina Leyman and Breaking the Ice by Karin Rehnkqvist is also performed. Conductor: Michael Bartosch.
"...Det här är tveklöst ny musik, befriad från ängsliga positionsförflyttningar i postmodernismens sankmarker. ...Leymans "Solar flares" och Tarrodis "Lucioles" är klang- och kontrastrika orkesterpanoramor, medan Tarrodis oboekonsert "Flyttfåglar" (där orkesterns nya försteoboist Emmanuel Laville smidigt axlade solorollen) är mer återhållsam utan att för den skull vara mindre stämningsrik; tvärtom rör det sig om en intensiv impressionism som kan föra tankarna till Peteris Vasks tidiga produktion." - Thomas Anderberg, DN 
On April 20 the Swedish Radio Symphony premiers Tarrodi´s new piece Liguria for orchestra at the Berwald Concert Hall. The piece is a commission from the Swedish Radio and is also performed on April 21, 2012. Conductor: Daniel Harding.
"...Utgångspunkten, där de höga vågorna vid Riomaggiore slår mot klippan, påminde om Respighis orkesterprakt. ...en välartad komposition, där den stora orkestern utnyttjas effektivt" - Lars Hedblad, SvD
"...Ett upprepat motiv blänker i blecket medan dånande vågor rullar fram i slagverket ...Som så ofta när det gäller Tarrodis musik är stycket välstrukturerat och välinstrumenterat" - Thomas Anderberg, DN
