Donald Matthew Redman\u00a0(July 29, 1900 \u2013 November 30, 1964)[1]\u00a0was an American\u00a0jazz\u00a0musician,\u00a0arranger, bandleader, and\u00a0composer.<\/span><\/p>\n Redman was born in Piedmont, Mineral County, West Virginia, United States. His father was a music teacher, his mother was a singer. Beginning by playing the trumpet at the age of three, Redman joined his first band at the age of six and by the age of 12 was proficient on all wind instruments ranging from trumpet to oboe as well as piano.[1] He studied at Storer College in Harper’s Ferry and at the Boston Conservatory, then joined Billy Page’s Broadway Syncopaters in New York City. He was the uncle of saxophonist Dewey Redman, and thus great-uncle of saxophonist Joshua Redman and trumpeter Carlos Redman.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Don_Redman” url_new_window=”on” button_text=”Read more at Wikipedia” button_alignment=”right” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”20px” link_option_url=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AFD2MgLiwmo” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Watch a video of Don Redman & His Orchestra with Red & Struggie (1934)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
