Robert Dick is a Yale School of Music alum who studied flute with Julius Baker and composition with Jacob Druckman and has had an active solo career for a long time and many CDs. He's most famous for his new music and extended techniques such as circular breathing, multiphonics, glissandos and whisper tones, and he literally wrote the book on extended techniques for the flute: The Other Flute, published by Oxford University Press. He plays a lot in the hip clubs of Brooklyn, where he now lives, but he lived in Europe for years and has performed all over the world.
An interesting guy who works in many styles, classical, jazz, rock, world music, improvisation, you name it.
I have to agree with Rick, circular breathing isn't right for everything, but Robert sure can put on an amazing show with it.
