OTTA-orchestra is a Russian female instrumental group. Lee Otta, whose name formed the basis of the name of the group, is the composer and arranger of the group. The band performs her music. Mentioning the word orchestra is also no coincidence. Music is based on the orchestral style of new age, world music.

The birth of the group dates back to 2007. During this time, Lee Otta was brought in as an orchestrator to work with Russian guitarist DiDuLay. This is how his album "Music of Unfinished Cinema" was born in 2007, with which the close collaboration of these two creative people working in the genre of instrumental music began.

In the process of work, Lee Otta and sound engineer and music producer Sergei Migachev (Moscow) met, a talented and experienced person who worked on the project of DiDuL, A. Russo, A. Khoralov and others. Her huge potential as a composer prompted Sergei to the idea of ​ ​ creating a new instrumental project. The idea of ​ ​ creating a group was born. And subsequently they decided that this team would be female.

Why is the group female? Music written by a woman should sound performed by a female collective - the founders of the collective decided, all the music is permeated with femininity and women feel the music in their own way. The search for musicians began.

The formation of the group did not happen quickly, - the work was carried out, not everything was clear - the participants changed, the concept changed, but music did not stop being created. The founders of the group had an unwavering belief in the success of the project. In 2009, OTTA-orchestra and DiDuLa presented the joint track "Greek" at the State Kremlin Palace in his solo concert. The group OTTA-orchestra filmed clips, toured Russian cities, participated in television shows.
The most striking compositions were "Indiana," "Deja Vu," "Husky."

The band released four albums: "Intercontinental" (2010), "Delight" (2015), "Shiny Shape" (2020), "Meeting Place" (2022) and three singles: "The Five Elements" (2013), "Greece" (2016), "Let Me Free" (2017), "Royal Safari" (2019).

The composer of Li OTTA is an orchestrator, arranger. One of the key works was the recording and performance of "Hymns of the World" in an orchestral arrangement in Germany.

Her "scores don't burn" literally. A daring attempt to write music for Jacopone's iconic "work of centuries" "Stabat Mater" eventually resulted in a whole opera mystery.
In parallel with writing music for the OTTA orchestra, Lee Otta worked at the studios Abbey Road (England, UK), Yash Raj Film (Mumbai, Bolliwood).

The group OTTA-orchestra had a real breakthrough in 2018, when the group performed their hit "Royal Safari" in Samara with the Samara Symphony Orchestra.

In the same year, the group visited China on tour. And in 2021 there were tours in several cities of Italy, including Rome.
