Jazz, Lounge, Background Music and Hotels
The Jetset Society provides stylish jazz, lounge and dinner music for hotels, receptions, jazz brunches, dinner events, hotel bars and high-end occasions in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland.
Not every event needs loud party energy. Very often, it is precisely understated and tasteful live music that creates a special atmosphere. Jazz standards in a swing style, bossa nova and samba, as well as well-known classics and current pop songs in a lounge style, create a pleasant ambience – sung, instrumental or in a combination of both.
Especially important in this area are restraint, tasteful song selection and controlled volume. That is exactly why this formation is suitable for hotels, receptions, dinners, lounges, bars and stylish daytime events where atmosphere is more important than show pressure.
For jazz, lounge and dinner settings, a lineup of 3 to 5 musicians is normally ideal. In the jazz and lounge area, there is one special case: the basic lineup can consist of 3 musicians – keyboard, bass and drums. Depending on the occasion, this formation can be stylishly expanded with vocals or additional instruments.
Co-operations for regular dates are welcome. We can provide the technical equipment ourselves depending on room size and setup. Our main area of activity is Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland; on request, we are also happy to perform in other regions.

Live music for reception, dinner, hotel bar and jazz brunch
Stylish live music creates a high-quality first impression and accompanies guests as they arrive without covering conversations.
During dinner, music should create atmosphere without dominating the room. Jazz, soul, lounge and subtle pop arrangements are especially suitable for this.
A jazz brunch lives from relaxed energy, musical quality and a pleasant sound that accompanies the morning or afternoon in a stylish way.
For hotel bars and lounge settings, music should feel high-end, calm and atmospheric – present, but never intrusive.
Live music for hotels and high-end events
Especially in hotels, at corporate receptions, galas, dinner events or high-end venues, high-quality background music is often highly appreciated. A small live lineup can enhance the character of the hotel or event without becoming too dominant.
What matters is that music, volume, song selection and lineup fit the room. That is why we coordinate the setup according to occasion, guest count, time of day and desired effect.
Live band with jazz, lounge and a broad repertoire
The Jetset Society can combine jazz, lounge and dinner music with a broader repertoire for events that need several musical phases. This is especially useful when a reception or dinner should begin in a calm, stylish way and the event later moves towards a more lively atmosphere.
Depending on the setting, the music can start with jazz standards, bossa nova, soul, easy listening or elegant pop interpretations. For events with a later party or dance floor, the concept can be expanded with a larger lineup and a more energetic repertoire.
This makes the band suitable for receptions, dinners, hotel events, gala dinners, client events and selected corporate occasions where both subtle atmosphere and musical flexibility are important. You can find a broader overview of songs and styles on the Repertoire page.
From reception and dinner to later dance music
For reception, networking, hotel bar or dinner, the music should support the room without dominating conversations. A small jazz or lounge lineup is often ideal for this phase.
If the event later becomes more lively, the musical focus can gradually shift towards soul, pop, funk, disco or danceable classics while still maintaining a polished sound.
For gala dinners, corporate events or private celebrations with a later party section, a larger band setup can create more presence, more vocals and stronger live energy.
For planning, it helps to know whether music is needed only for reception or dinner, or whether a later dance floor, stage moment or party section should also be included.
Jazz and lounge music for business events, galas and receptions
Jazz, lounge and dinner music can also be an excellent choice for corporate events, client receptions, networking formats, gala dinners and representative occasions. In these settings, the music should support the atmosphere without dominating speeches, conversations or the flow of the event.
Depending on the event, the setup can remain instrumental and subtle or include vocals for more presence. The musical focus can move between jazz standards, bossa nova, soul, lounge, easy listening and elegant pop interpretations.
For larger corporate events or galas with a later party section, a bigger lineup or a full event band may be more suitable. For a first overview of cost factors, you can also visit our Pricing page.
Which details help for an offer?
Date, venue, room size, indoor or outdoor setting and the type of event help us assess the right musical and technical setup.
It is helpful to know whether the music is intended for reception, dinner, hotel bar, jazz brunch, lounge atmosphere, business event or gala dinner.
Guest count, room acoustics and desired volume level influence whether a trio, a lineup with vocals or an extended lounge formation is most suitable.
Power supply, available space, existing sound equipment and access to the venue help clarify whether we should bring a small technical setup.
Which lineup is suitable for jazz, lounge and dinner?
Keyboard, bass and drums as a subtle basic lineup for jazz, lounge, dinner, reception and hotel settings.
Vocals can give the setting more presence and recognition – especially with lounge, soul, jazz standards or elegant pop songs.
Depending on room and occasion, a smaller formation can be expanded with additional instruments without losing its subtle character.
You can find more information about our flexible lineups on the Lineups page.
When are jazz or lounge music especially suitable?
Jazz and lounge music are especially suitable in situations where atmosphere should be created without dominating conversations or the schedule. Typical fields of use are hotel lobbies, bars, dinners, receptions, brunches, galas, business events or exclusive private celebrations.
Especially in high-end spaces, music is at its strongest when it does not feel intrusive, but conveys elegance, calmness and quality.
How loud should live music be in hotels and at dinner?
In hotel lobbies, bars, dinner settings or during receptions, volume is particularly sensitive. The music should be present enough to create atmosphere, but never so loud that conversations become difficult. Professional jazz and lounge music is distinguished precisely by this kind of control.
The goal of The Jetset Society is not maximum presence, but rather a musical framework that radiates quality, calmness and style.
Does jazz music require a lot of technical equipment?
As a rule, stylish live music in a hotel or dinner context requires significantly less technical equipment than a party or gala lineup – often even very little. Depending on the room size, instrumentation and occasion, a very reduced setup can be entirely sufficient.
More important than large amounts of equipment is clean coordination with the room, the schedule and the desired effect.
