The West Virginia Jazz Orchestra has been bringing the vibrant sounds of big band jazz to audiences since its formation in 2000. Founded by Joe Buttram, Peter Hill, and Gary Williams, the orchestra quickly appointed Jeff Bryant as its music director, shaping a dynamic ensemble of 21 talented musicians. Specializing in classic big band-era music, the group features two vocalists and performs at a variety of local events, from concerts in the park to community festivals. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, the orchestra is dedicated to enriching the cultural landscape of the Greenbrier Valley and Allegheny Highlands through charitable and educational initiatives. Whether swinging through timeless jazz standards or supporting young musicians, the West Virginia Jazz Orchestra continues to be a cornerstone of the region’s musical heritage.
