Hall stayed with Whiteman's orchestra until 1930, mainly featured as a trombone player (his speciality on this instrument was a lightning-fast rendition of Felix Arndt's Nola, which he also recorded in 1929).
Whiteman's main arranger Ferde Grofé even wrote a special feature number for Hall on this "instrument" called Free Air: Based on Noises from a Garage.
[2] After leaving Whiteman Hall toured as a solo act with the Publix circuit and then joined the Ken Murray Blackouts in Los Angeles.
An act called "Wilbur Hall and Renée Fields" appeared in the variety program Eastern Cabaret on BBC Television December 12 and 17, 1938.
[3] The same month, an advertisement by Fred Collins' Agency in British newspaper The Era, known for its theatrical content, announced a forthcoming appearance in Dundee, Scotland by the same act, who may have been Wilbur and his wife.
