To the professional, semi-professional, and amateur musicians on the list:
Did your high school or college jazz/stage band feature a disproportionate number of freckled redheads? It seemed like every redhead in our high school played trombone, trumpet, or saxophone.
Was this a coincidence in my school, or is there a genetic linkage between red hair and an interest in Maynard Ferguson, Buddy Rich, and Stan Kenton?
