Eisner Intergenerational Big Band

The Eisner Intergenerational Big Band (EIBB) unites some of the best jazz musicians, from teenagers to seniors, to rehearse and perform an outstanding, stylistically diverse jazz repertoire.

The EIBB gives a new life to jazz hits that transformed the American music landscape throughout history. Through improvisation, our musicians bring a unique experience to every performance. We bring our music to communities across Los Angeles to highlight the benefits of building meaningful, intergenerational relationships through music and performance.

The Eisner Intergenerational Big Band rehearses every Thursday from 7:15-9:15PM.
