The largest international big band jazz project of its kind
Every year in April/May the Danish-based organization Swinging Europe puts together a European jazz big band tour under the name of the European Jazz Orchestra - EJO. Each year a new conductor, new compositions and a new line-up of handpicked musicians, aged 18-30 - headhunted by the partner organization, the EBU Jazz Producers Group - go on new adventures, following new itineraries. Since the start of the EJO in 1998, 276 European musicians have participated and 205 concerts have been arranged in 35 countries in Europe, North and South America and in Asia. In 2005 the EJO merged with the EBU Big Band, established in 1965 by the network of public broadcasters with Members and partners all over the world. The EBU Big Band has had a huge impact on the global jazz scene, presenting a wide range of renowned jazz personalities at various concert halls, clubs and festivals all over Europe. The impact of the EBU Big Band has been boosted by an enormous quantity of radio and TV transmissions reaching millions of listeners and viewers. The European Jazz Orchestra is supported by the EU.
