Dick, Robert – Fish Are Jumping (for Flute Alone)

FISH ARE JUMPING (1999) is an uptempo, Chicago style 12 bar blues for flute, with all the chords, bends, slides and wildness that a blues fan could hope for. This piece is the logical followup to LOOKOUT, taking the next steps in creating American vernacular music for flute. The piece includes a space for an improvised cadenza. FISH ARE JUMPING – ROCKS! 5-7 minutes
