About

Zoom Tube is a rhythmic piece influenced by blues, employing various extended techniques to achieve its goals. It is a remarkable addition to the flute repertoire, offering a challenge to learn, but fortunately easier than it appears.

Prior to tackling Zoom Tube, it is recommended to have some experience with pieces like ‘The Great Train Race’ and ‘Spiral Lament,’ or explore Robert Dick’s music. However, there is ample explanation provided, making previous experience with extended techniques not necessary but beneficial.

Since its publication in 2001, Zoom Tube has become a regular feature in professional and final-year conservatoire recital performances. It has also been selected multiple times as a competition piece, including the NFA’s Young Artists Competition. Notably, it was included in the Peters Edition GCSE Music Anthology, specifically in the section ‘Changing Directions of Western Classical Music from 1900.’ Additionally, it has been freely programmed by woodwind finalists in the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition, including in the winning programs of both the BBCYM and the prestigious Royal Overseas League competition, along with other esteemed woodwind prizes.
