Rhein-Neckar Jazz-Orchester

The Rhein-Neckar Jazz Orchestra (RNJO) from Weinheim has a history spanning more than 30 years and brings together musicians from across the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region. It performs in a classic big band lineup and is stylistically distinguished by a cohesive musical concept and a broad repertoire—ranging from swing and bebop to funk and Latin, as well as fusion and contemporary compositions and arrangements. Concerts in the region, as well as throughout Germany and in other European countries, in jazz clubs and at festivals, delight not only swing and bebop fans but also lovers of Latin and fusion music. For many years, the RNJO has also been active abroad as a cultural ambassador for the Rhine-Neckar district, touring the district’s partner regions in France, Sweden, and Italy.
