Le WDR Big Band est le big band de la station de radio allemande Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR) à Cologne. Il est passé d'un orchestre de divertissement, tel qu'il en existait dans les années 1940 jusqu'aux années 1970, à un ensemble artistique qui, depuis les années 1980, est également reconnu au niveau international comme l'un des principaux big bands radiophoniques et jouit d'une grande liberté artistique.
