Flute).Before 50s though, it had little use because of the low volume, Dancing halls
and jazz clubs in 20s to 40s required a loud solo instrument to fill a big hall (Trumper,
Saxophone)
Although, we know jazzflute started to emerge in 20s. The earliest known
recording of a jazzflute being used as solo instrument, was by Cuban clarnetist
Alberto Socarras, recording "Shooting the Pistol" with Clarence Williams band and
setting a milestone for future jazzflutist.
While acknowleding the contribution to the early pioneers, jazz historians credit
saxophonist Wayman Carver as being the first true jazz flutist, whilst recording
extensively in the 30s. Tunes like "Loveless Love" in 1931 and "Sweet Sue, just You"
in 1933 with Spike Hughes band.
In the forties, multiinstrumentalist Jerome Richardson, joined Lionel Hamptons
big band and recorded solos on "Kingfish" in 1949 and "There Will Never Be Another
You" in 1950
