Though popularity big-bendov after the Second World War has considerably decreased, orchestras led by Bejsi, Ellingtonom, Vudi Herman, Stenom Kentonom, Harrys Jamess and many other things often went on tour and wrote down plates within several next decades. Their music gradually changed under the influence of new currents. Such groups as ensembles led by Boyd Rajbernom, San Ra, Oliverom Nelson, Charles Mingusom, Tedom Johns-Melom Lewis investigated new concepts of harmony, instrumentations and improvisations to freedom. Today big-bendy are the standard in a jazz education. Repertuarnye orchestras of type of the Jazz Orchestra of the Lincoln-centre, Carnegie Holl, Dzhaz Smitsonian Masteruork Orkestra’s Jazz orchestra and the Chicago Jazz Ensemble regularly play original big-bendovskih compositions.
