Klein Orkest (Small Orchestra) is a group from The Hague, The Netherlands, founded in 1978. The members of the band were Harrie Jekkers, Niek Nieuwenhuijsen, Chris Prins and Leon Smith.
The band was born out of a failed cabaret programme "Groot Orkest" (Large Orchestra). Apart from producing albums about "serious" matters (the popular song "Over de muur", across the wall, is an example of this: it concerns the differences between eastern and western Berlin during the times of the Wall).
