Big Bands of UC Davis
Otto Lee, director
Pitzer Center
This program is a celebration of the big band tradition, featuring jazz musicians from right here in our campus community. The bands will dig into Miles Davis's bebop staple Half Nelson and Jimmy McHugh's beloved standard Exactly Like You, among other selections. The two big bands of UC Davis are directed by Otto Lee, lecturer in music, who is a California native, saxophonist, educator, and composer. Lee received his D.M.A. degree in jazz studies from the University of Colorado, Boulder, in 2017.
