hr-Bigband is a German big band radio orchestra, renowned for its diverse repertoire encompassing jazz standards, contemporary compositions, and collaborations across genres including pop, rock, and classical music. Established in 1963, the ensemble maintains a commitment to both preserving big band tradition and exploring innovative musical territories. They are associated with the Hessischer Rundfunk (hr), the public broadcaster for the state of Hesse.
The concert will take place at the Großer Sendesaal (Large Broadcasting Hall) of Hessischer Rundfunk in Frankfurt. This hall is a significant venue for classical music and large ensemble performances within the city and region. Originally constructed in the early 1960s alongside the HR broadcasting center, it was designed with specific acoustic requirements for radio broadcasting in mind. Over time, it has become recognized for its excellent acoustics suitable for a wide range of musical events.
Renovations have occurred over the years to enhance its capabilities as a concert hall while maintaining its original purpose as a broadcast studio. The hall regularly hosts recordings by hr-Sinfonieorchester and other ensembles, alongside public concerts. It is known for its relatively intimate setting despite its size, fostering a direct connection between performers and audience members.
