Big Band de Canarias

"“Raíces,” led by the saxophonist, composer and teacher Kike Perdomo, aims to be a continuation of the musical study and creation process that has been developing for 15 years in the monographic works of the Big Band de Canarias (BBDC).
The aim of the project is to revive our music, its rhythm and its best melodies and to orchestrate and adapt it all for a large ensemble format such as a big band and contemporary orchestra, so that the audience can enjoy our musical heritage.
Under the “world music” label, the BBDC interprets genres such as folk, jazz, flamenco, South African folklore and pop.
With respect for tradition and looking to the future, the BBDC, supported by some of the best musicians on the Islands, aspires to demonstrate the sound possibilities of this music style and to give a new status to its culture.
