Donaldson, who lives in New York City, and his group will pre sent a free public concert in the Richard B. Harrison Auditorium on Sunday, March 17, at 6 p.m. The concert is a feature of the university’s Lyceum Series. Donaldson has enjoyed an outstanding jazz career for nearly 30 years. He became an early suc cess on the alto saxophone with a style derived from Charlie Parker. Donaldson got his first break when he attracted the at tention of Alfred Lion of the Blue Note Record Company. He began recording a long series of sessions, some under his own leadership, others with Art Blakey, Jimmy Smith, Milt Jackson and Thelonious Monk. Donaldson works mostly around New York City today, but in recent years he has played in nearly every country in Western Europe. He led his own band for over 25 years. Donaldson, a native of Badin, enrolled as a student at A&T in the late 40s. He majored in music and was a member of the univer sity’s marching and concert bands. Walter Carlson, an A&T music teacher, remembers Donaldson as a student who showed tremen dous potential. “He majored in music and he was an outstanding student,” said Carlson. “He went through our band program and also played in small jazz musical groups in the area.” Donaldson’s mother, said Carlson, was a music teacher and band director, and it was through her that he gained his first formal knowledge of music. After leaving A&T, Donaldson spent time in the U.S. Navy and performed with the Great Lakes Naval Band. After leaving the service, he studied at the Darrow Institute in New York and began performing professionally in the 50s. The Hair Gallery Designers GRAHD OPENING SPECIALS Special on Curif, Tues.
