Earl Lee

  • Steven Banks sits against a dark gray backdrop surrounded by four saxophones of different sizes. He wears a cerulean blue suit with a white shirt and silver tie. He has short black hair that's faded on the sides and he wears round glasses. He looks off to the right of frame, smiling as if he's just laughed.

    Banks is the soloist in Henri Tomasi’s sultry, atmospheric Saxophone Concerto, and Earl Lee conducts two works that explore the power of fate, César Franck’s Le Chasseur maudit, or "The Cursed Hunter," and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4.
