Martin, Alexander
No full textAlexander Martin was born on June 18, 1895 in Glasgow, Scotland to parents Daniel and Jeanie Martin. He was the youngest child in a family of eight, which include his brothers, Arthur, David, Findlay, George, James, and Thomas, and sister, Jeanie. As a young man, Alex immigrated to Canada, as did some of his brothers. He made his home in Lethbridge, Alberta, where he was employed as a teamster. Known as “Scotty” to his friends, Alex was very popular in the community, and an active member of the Wesley church. All seven Martin boys would volunteer to serve in the Great War.
On November 28, 1914, Alex Martin enlisted with the 20th Battery 5th Brigade Canadian Field Artillery. Gunner Martin arrived in England on August 18, 1915, and remained in England until embarking for France on January 15, 1916. He would serve with the 20th Battery for four months, seeing action near Ypres.
On May 7, 1916 ,while serving in Belgium, Gunner Martin was killed in action when a piece of shrapnel penetrated his heart. As it was known that his brother was serving with the Black Watch nearby, Major Alvin Ripley, commander of the 20th Battery, sent word for his brother to attend the funeral, which was held the next day. He was laid to rest at Dickebusch New Military Cemetery. Alex Martin was awarded the British War Medal and Victory Medal. His brother, David, received the death plaque and scroll in his memory
A career retrospective of Eddie Sauter, jazz’s overlooked composer and innovator
No full textWith a career that spanned nearly four decades during the height of jazz’s popularity, Eddie Sauter contributed arrangements and compositions to some of the most significant jazz groups in the music’s history. Through his unique style, his constant desire to expand upon his compositional prowess through studies with various classical composers, and his general willingness to experiment with unusual melodic and harmonic gestures, Sauter produced music vastly different from that of most of his contemporaries. It is for this reason that the pensive composer was deemed “twenty years ahead of his time” by several critics of the day. As the chief architect for much of Red Norvo’s songbook in the 1930s, dozens of arrangements and compositions for Benny Goodman in the early 1940s, creative originals for Ray McKinley in the late 1940s, a unique repertoire with co- conspirator Bill Finegan in their jointly led “expanded” big band of the 1950s, and a handful of gems for Stan Getz with orchestral accompaniment in the 1960s, “prolific” barely begins to describe the output of Eddie Sauter. This thesis examines the life of the obscure yet influential composer/arranger Eddie Sauter from his curious beginning in 1914 as the adopted son of a German florist in Nyack, NY, through his forty year career spent among some of jazz’s most important individuals, until his untimely death at the age of 66 in 1981.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Alex Chilowic
