Flööt Jazzis ja selle ajalugu
From 53, Saxophone/flutist Frank Wess began to specialize on the flute, studied
under Wayman Carver and was the main flautist for Count Basie Big Band. With the
help of radio, Count Basies band followed huge success and Frank Wess playing the
flute soon enough he recorded his debut hit "Perdido" in 1954. There is a story that
Count basie, after hiring Frank, had no idea he could play flute. When one of Franks
friends told Basie about Wesss way of playing the flute, Basie was interest to hear
him out. He chose Perdido and Basie was so impressed he recorded the piece. This
recording has to be the most influential recording in the history of jazz flute. The
success of the recording pushed more arrangers to use flute as a solo instrument
and boosted to popularity of the flute in general.
