Dizzy Gillespie Big Band

The Dizzy Gillespie Big Band is the direct descendant of the impact of Dizzy Gillespie and the tradition lives on, nurtured by Gillespie alumnus, executive director and producer, bassist John Lee. Together they continue to delight audiences around the world with the enduring power and freshness of Dizzy Gillespie’s music. This is the legacy the master would have wanted—and a living tribute from the many extraordinary musicians in this group who exemplify his style, range, and commitment.
