Redman won the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Saxophone Competition the same year and began focusing on his musical career. He is the artistic director of San Francisco's SF Jazz Collective, which is considered by many to be an emerging geographic and philosophic rival to the stylistically neo-classicist Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra under the direction of Wynton Marsalis.
