I've heard him play alto on records but I'm not sure if I've seen video of him playing one.

Until now . . .

Having owned a few Beaugniers, and played a couple BA and SBA Selmers, I have to say, I like the Beaugnier better! It is truly the closest thing to an SBA "copy" you'll ever get, but, for me, far easier intonation, and easier overtones. But, Redman is a master! And I do enjoy the tone of a BA or SBA, by those that really dig them :)

Here is another nice video of Josh Redman on Alto:



I like how at 8:22 after playing an amazing solo he makes a hardly noticeable squeak whilst playing the melody and mimes shooting himself in the head. What a perfectionist!! He's one of the modern greats (IMO).
