This European big Band is composed of 8 of the most prestigious European music schools: the Didier Lockwood Music Centre, the Pôle supérieur d'enseignement artistique Paris Boulogne billancourt, the Royal Conservatory of London, the Hochshule für Musik of Munich, the LUSIADA University of Lisbon, the Lisbon Higher Music School, the Conservatory of The Hague, the Conservatory of Amsterdam.

The European Big Band is led by the great Spanish saxophonist and composer Perico Sambeat who honours the Big Band, sometimes travelling between the harmony and melody of Flamenco and the rhythmic swing of jazz, sometimes advocating a deeper jazz that explores the possibilities of a large orchestra made up of musicians from the most prestigious European schools.
