Last April, @landeraustero pulled together a group of students, alumnus and faculty member @bradturner_trumpet to record a few of his own big band arrangements in room 113 for his final Jazz 497 project. Lander graduated from the Cap U Jazz Studies program last spring at age 20 and is now working on his masters degree at Florida State University!
Sit back and enjoy Lander’s rendition of Meredith Willson’s composition “Till There Was You”.
