LifeBorn in Moose Jaw, Delamont was the son of bandmaster and cornetist Arthur Delamont. He grew up in Vancouver where he was a soloist with a boys' band that his father directed. His father provided him with his earliest musical training. In 1939 he moved to Toronto at the age of 20 where he became principal trumpet of CBC Radio's orchestra in that city and played lead trumpet in local dance bands. From 1945-1949 he led a dance band that was based at the Club Top Hat in Toronto.[2] In 1949 Delamont went to New York City to study arranging, composition, and pedagogy with Maury Deutsch. He returned later that year to open his own private teaching studio in Toronto where he offered instruction in harmony, counterpoint, composition, and music theory. He taught up until his death more than 30 years later. His notable pupils include Peter Appleyard, Gustav Ciamaga, Ron Collier, Jimmy Dale, Hagood Hardy, Herbie Helbig, Paul Hoffert, Moe Koffman, Rob McConnell, Ben McPeek, Bernie Piltch, Fred Stone, Norman Symonds, Rick Wilkins, Maribeth Solomon, amongst others.[1] Another student, Whitney Smith, produced a 90-minute radio documentary for CBC in 1979 entitled, "Gordon Delamont: Taking the Notes Where They Want to Go".[3] The Gordon Delamont collection is held in the Faculty of Music library, University of Toronto. The collection catalog will be available online[4] from 16 August 2010. Books
