The Big Five
Inspired by the wild, sizzling sounds of 1930s and 1940s jazz from Harlem and Chicago, The Big Five have established themselves as Berlin’s most authentic swing band. With a driving rhythm section, a fiery horn frontline and dynamic song arrangements, this international band delves deep into the lesser-known repertoire of the golden age of swing – whilst placing a strong emphasis on original compositions. With an intense passion for authentic jazz from the swing era, these musicians are sure to have you jumping for joy.
