A live band for a corporate party: when a big band, when a smaller line-up

A big band for a corporate party is a generous gesture — but it does not suit every event. Here is an honest guide that shows which line-up you really need.

When the full orchestra pays off

The full Big Band Karlovy Vary is the right choice when:

  • you are holding a company ball or gala evening for hundreds of guests,
  • the event is representative — a company anniversary, an evening for key partners, an awards ceremony,
  • you want the music to be an experience in itself, not just a background.

Twenty musicians on stage make a strong impression. Guests remember it, and photos of such an evening look different from those of an event with a DJ.

When the Jazz Combo is enough

For a party for dozens of guests, in a smaller hall or with a limited budget, there is the Jazz Combo — eight musicians including the horn section. It keeps the swing shine but takes half the space.

When we will recommend someone else

If you only need discreet music for a dinner or reception where the main thing is conversation, a big band is unnecessarily large. For such events we recommend the line-ups of our soloist — jazz singer David Kleňha: jazz duo, jazz trio, jazz quartet or jazz quintet. The same singer, a more intimate sound.

What to expect from us at a corporate event

We play regularly at corporate parties and company balls. We do not publish client names — discretion is a matter of course at corporate events. We adapt the programme to the schedule of the evening: a set during dinner, a set for dancing, a break for a speech or an awards ceremony.
