A big band is a type of musical ensemble associated with playing jazz music and which became popular during the Swing Era from the early 1930s until the late 1940s. Big Bands evolved with the times and continue to today. A big band typically consists of approximately 12 to 25 musicians and contains saxophones, trumpets, trombones, and a rhythm section. The terms jazz band, jazz ensemble, stage band, jazz orchestra, and dance band are also used to refer to this type of ensemble. This does not, however, mean that each one of these names is technically correct for naming a 'big band" specifically.
In contrast to smaller jazz combos, in which most of the music is improvised, or created spontaneously, music played by big bands is highly "arranged", or prepared in advance and notated on sheet music. The music is traditionally called 'charts'. Improvised solos may be played only when called for by the arranger.
History and style
There are two distinct periods in the history of popular bands. Beginning in the mid-1920s, big bands, then typically consisting of 10–25 pieces, came to dominate popular music. At that time they usually played a form of jazz that involved very little improvisation, which included a string section with violins, which was dropped after the introduction of swing in 1935. A few bands also had violas and cellos, usually one or two along with them. The dance form of jazz was characterized by a sweet and romantic melody. Orchestras tended to stick to the melody as it was written and vocals would be sung (often in a tenor voice) and in tune with the melody.

Bob Mintzer & WDR BIG BAND - Swing Swing Swing | Konzert
Die WDR BIG BAND spielt Kompositionen von Chefdirigent Bob Mintzer aus dem Konzertprogramm „Swing Swing Swing“. Live aufgezeichnet im WDR Funkhaus / Köln (Juni 2024).
Für Mintzer ist "Swing, Swing, Swing" eine bunte Sammlung von Musik unterschiedlicher Epochen, bei der sich alles um Swing dreht: "Musik, die sich gut anfühlt, die einen dazu bringt, mit dem Fuß zu wippen, den Körper zu bewegen und sich dankbar zu fühlen, am Leben zu sein."
