Jazz flute
Use of the flute in jazz was a considered a novelty in the early years of jazz music, with the first recordings appearing only in the late 1920s. With the help of developments in sound technology, the flute is now widely used in jazz ensembles and by soloists. The modern Boehm system transverse concert flute is commonly used in jazz playing; other members of the same family are used, such as the alto G flute. Ethnic and other flutes, such as bamboo flutes, have also been used in jazz.
==History==
The flute was not widely used in early jazz, although some ragtime arrangements call for it. The timbre and the limited dynamic range of the instrument and its associations with classical music caused it to be perceived as unsuitable to big band ensembles and unable to swing convincingly.〔Lewis Porter (Flute ). ''The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz'', second edition. 〕 Before the use of amplification became common practice in the 1930s, jazz flute players were restricted to the upper range of the instrument to be audible.〔
Among the earliest jazz flute recordings is "Shootin' the Pistol," performed by Cuban clarinettist and bandleader Alberto Socarras with the Clarence Williams band in 1927.〔 The first jazzman to make extensive use of the flute was Wayman Carver, a saxophone player who from 1932 specialised in flute. He recorded flute solos with Benny Carter and with Spike Hughes in 1933, and played and recorded with the Chick Webb band for several years, soloing on flute on tracks such as "Sweet Sue", "Down Home Rag" and "I Got Rhythm".〔〔Brian Case, Stan Britt (1978).
