Big Band
Nobody shows up late when seventeen musicians are already waiting for you.
Big Band is a style from the Smoke and Midnight family. 145 BPM, Weirdness 24, Style Influence 94.
Full brass and saxophone sections roaring through majestic arrangements. Big band is jazz at its grandest and most elegant — orchestral power with irresistible swing.

Sample excerpt
Diecisiete músicos y una sola respiración, nadie brilla solo aunque todos sepan hacerlo. Mi papá tocaba el cuarto trombón, que es el que nadie escucha y todos necesitan.
¡Que entren todos juntos, que se sienta! Diecisiete personas diciendo lo mismo. El solo se aplaude, pero el bloque es lo que hace que se te pare el pelo.
Workshop note — Primera persona, presente, monumental. La big band pide una letra que celebre el conjunto por encima del solista. A 145 BPM el bloque de metales entra al final de cada frase, así que corta el verso un tiempo antes.
