Who Does That?
You won’t see Anna Frazer conducting or arranging the formations of the Oregon Marching Band on the field (Director of Athletic Bands Eric Wiltshire coordinates that giant task). But she does manage all the logistics and inner workings of the band as the administrative coordinator of Athletic Bands.
She works behind the scenes to coordinate student registration, band schedules, facilities reservations, food orders, lodging and transportation, budgets and fundraising. Frazer also oversees student and professional staff including the uniform and equipment managers and a student-run social media team.
When not working with the band she is also the operations coordinator for the Oregon Bach Festival.
Next year when you see the marching band moving smoothly across the field at Autzen Stadium, remember Anna Frazer laid the foundation for a performance that doesn’t miss a beat.
Follow along with the band as they play at the Big Ten Championship Game and the Rose Bowl.
