The band was made up of a total of 20 musicians, including advanced students and teachers. Its formation has been extended for approximately seven years, where its improvisation has been evolving favorably in the classroom of the Teguise Municipal School of Music. There, a heterogeneous formation was formed, until it became the Casual Combo Big Band, created four years ago. 

When the director concluded the concert, the public stood up and encouraged them to continue, closing the performance by performing an encore.
