'YTA I' for solo alto flute by composer Esa-Pekka Salonen.

This piece was composed in 1982 and is a contemporary solo alto flute work dedicated to Mika Helasvuo, who also happened to be the first flutist to perform the piece. 'YTA I' is 5 minutes long and includes many extended contemporary techniques for the flute including key slaps, tongue rams, jet whistles, and inhalations. Published in oversized manuscript form, this piece is largely rhythmic and percussive in nature and stays at a presto; nervoso tempo for the entire work, categorizing this piece as minimalistic. This solo should be considered by the advanced flutist.
