Marc Meyer and his New Jazz Band take us on a musical journey through jazz standards, revisited with overflowing energy and an obvious connection between the musicians.
This trio offers a set of compositions and arrangements of standards (Thad Jones, Coltrane). The result is an original blend of pop-rock and classical influences.
An acoustic gypsy swing quartet, Minor Sing blends original compositions with interpretations of Django Reinhardt. Their swing is joyful, catchy, and diverse.
This spirited quintet revisits the works of Lionel Hampton, Duke Ellington, and other legends. Their repertoire moves seamlessly from New Orleans Jazz to Charleston, through Blues and Swing.
Passionate about traditional and middle jazz, this spirited and youthful quintet was formed in 2013 at the HEMU (University of Music) in Lausanne. They are dedicated to bringing a personal touch to the works of Lionel Hampton, Duke Ellington, Fats Waller, George Gershwin, Django Reinhardt, and other great names from the 1930s and 1940s.
True to its name, this orchestra consists solely of exceptionally talented musicians. They perfectly master that infectious swing, drawing their themes primarily from the fabulous Benny Goodman Quartet of the late 1930s.

Hailing from Hungary, the Budapest Swing orchestra is dedicated to keeping alive the jazz arrangements of the 1930s and 40s swing era. These musicians are all seasoned professionals, and Rive Jazzy is delighted to take advantage of their Swiss tour to bring you a world-class performance.

Born over thirty years ago from a shared passion for jazz, the Dixieland Bull’s Band brought their infectious energy to the Rive Jazzy audience. Active since 1990 on Swiss and international stages, this traditional jazz ensemble from Gruyères has made their motto—"friendship, humor, and musicality"—the secret to their longevity. Backed by decades of experience and three albums, their performance delivered a festive concert and a generous repertoire full of joyful surprises.
