Step into a world where brass blazes, rhythms swing, and melodies soar—welcome to the West Virginia Jazz Orchestra (WVJO), the Mountain State’s premier ensemble dedicated to the timeless magic of Big Band jazz. Since its founding in 2000 by Joe Buttram, Peter Hill, and Gary Williams, and under the inspired direction of Jeff Bryant, the WVJO has become a beloved cultural cornerstone of the Greenbrier Valley and the Allegheny Highlands.
With 21 accomplished performers and two dynamic vocalists, the WVJO brings the golden age of jazz to life with every performance. From the smooth sophistication of Duke Ellington to the high-energy swing of Count Basie, the orchestra’s repertoire celebrates the rich traditions of the Big Band era while embracing fresh arrangements that captivate modern audiences.
Whether performing in elegant concert halls, lively street festivals, or intimate community gatherings, the WVJO delivers a musical experience that’s both nostalgic and exhilarating.
