Hart Wand

Hart A. WAND (3a de Marto, 1887 – 9a de Aŭgusto, 1960), estis afrik-usona violonisto kaj bandestro el Oklahoma Urbo, Oklahomo. Li estis de germana deveno. En la muzika mondo li estis fama ĉefe pro la publikigo de "Dallas Blues" en Marto 1912 (kopirajtigita en Septembro). "Dallas Blues" estis frua ekzemplo de publikigita dekdustria bluskanto. Duncan, Blues Fiddling Classics, paĝo 30: "This tune was the first 12-bar blues to be published (March 1912). It was written by violinist/band leader Hart Wand from Oklahoma." Davis, The History of the Blues, paĝo 59: "The composer of the very first copyrighted "blues" was Hart Wand, a white Oklahoma violinist and bandleader whose "Dallas Blues" was so named because its melody gave a black porter who worked for Wand's family "the blues to go back to Dallas." This was followed a few months later by "Baby Seals' Blues", a negligible item by the black vaudeville performer "Baby" Seals and ragtime pianist Arthur Matthews." Davis, The History of the Blues, paĝo 59: "But in a sense, the very first blues was the twelve-bar opening verse to the pop song "Oh, You Beautiful Doll," which was published in 1911."
