Inspired by the raw and vibrant sounds of Harlem and Chicago in the 1930s and 40s, The Big Five Quintet has established itself as one of Berlin’s most authentic swing groups. With a driving rhythm section and a sparkling horn lineup, this international quintet delivers tightly packed arrangements, rarely performed material from the golden age of swing – and a generous dose of their own original songs. Well-known among Lindy Hop and Balboa dancers in Berlin, they know exactly how to turn a neat and tidy dance floor into a storm of swing-outs and cheers. With sharp style, infectious joy, and a true love for the golden era of swing, The Big Five Quintet guarantees a top-notch atmosphere! Line-up: Daniel Duspiwa – Tenor Sax Leo Gerstner – Drums Jack Latimer – Vocals / Guitar Malte Tönißen – Bass Laurin Habert – Bari Sax / Alto Sax / Clarinet
