Reviews of 1950s Era Musicians & Bands available in Dortmund

5/5 from 794 reviews
Photo of Jazz Bands Dortmund —Jazz Central Agency Jazz Bands Dortmund —Jazz Central Agency "This was the second company event I organized with live music from Jazz Centrale, and once again they exceeded expectations. Both performances featured exceptional musicians and singers, and the entire process was smooth and professional. I highly recommend them for both the quality of the music and the excellent organization." Based in Dortmund, North Rhine-Westphalia 24th June 2026 Stephane Carlier - Corporate Event Photo of Gradalicious Gradalicious "Very good, our guests are happy with the music and the performance. The atmosphere was very fantastic!" Based in Bussum, North Holland, Netherlands (111 miles from Dortmund) Yuting Cheng - KTS International Exhibition Consulting UG Photo of Bijou Trio Bijou Trio "I was searching for a jazz band for a luxury event I planned in Amsterdam and came across Bijou Trio, what an incredible find! Out of all the entertainment companies I contacted, they were the first to respond (within hours!), and their pricing was by far the most competitive. When the event day came, they exceeded every expectation. Impeccably presented, charming, and professional, these 3 young men brought the atmosphere and true artistry to the event. Their performance was elegant, polished, and musically outstanding. I later found out they are formally trained musicians with a university background in music and it shows. Highly recommended for anyone looking for world-class jazz with genuine soul and sophistication." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands (125 miles from Dortmund) Nadia Duran - Nadia Duran Events - Sydney Australia Photo of Sofia Michelle Sofia Michelle "There hasn’t been a lot of great song options for wedding music. It’s always either lacking or overused. Sofia put together such a great song list for us. We had a video prepared last minute and Sofia chooses the perfect songs to go with it. It was such a beautiful moment for us when they go live. We got so many compliments from guests." Based in Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands (125 miles from Dortmund) Andrianna Pan - Wedding Dinner Photo of Black Thursdays Trio Black Thursdays Trio "Great performance! What a fantastic trio! And very nice men. Professional and flexible, highly recommended" Based in The Hague, South Holland, Netherlands (141 miles from Dortmund) 20th March 2026 Raymond - Private Event Photo of Vento do Sul/ Tribute to Chet Baker Vento do Sul/ Tribute to Chet Baker "They sound amazing. We enjoyed our time listening to their beautiful music. They played beautifull Bossa novas from Carlos Jobim."
