Barcelona Jazz Orquestra, hailing from the cultural and vibrant city of Barcelona, Spain, has established itself as one of the premier jazz ensembles in Europe. Known for their rich and sophisticated sound, the orchestra has a passion for classic jazz era tunes, yet they approach each arrangement with a contemporary and fresh perspective. Their discography, featuring albums such as "Nits De Swing a La Sala Apolo" and "Dizzy's Business," showcases their versatility and ability to swing with the best of them, paying homage to jazz greats while infusing their music with a distinctly Catalan flair.

Over the years, Barcelona Jazz Orquestra has collaborated with a plethora of jazz luminaries, further enriching their sound. Notable projects include "Our Man Benny," dedicated to the legendary saxophonist Benny Carter, and "September In The Rain," which is a testament to their ability to craft emotionally resonant and technically sophisticated performances. Through these releases and their electrifying live performances, often held at the iconic Sala Apolo among other venues, they have garnered a loyal following. The orchestra continues to be a beacon of jazz excellence, bridging the gap between the genre's rich history and its dynamic future.
