Herbolzheimer se je rodil leta 1935 v [[Bukarešta|Bukarešti]]. Leta 1951 je pobegnil iz [[Romunska ljudska republika|komunistične Romunije]] v [[Zvezna republika Nemčija|Zahodno Nemčijo]], leta 1954 pa se je preselil v [[ZDA]], kjer je obiskoval srednjo šolo Highland Park High School. V šoli je bil med glavnimi člani zborov in orkestrov, s kitaro pa je prav tako spremljal več skupin, ki so pogosto nastopale za številne organizacije in korporacije v okolici [[Detroit]]a. Leta 1957 se je vrnil v Nemčijo in začel z igranjem ventil pozavne, s katero je sodeloval v številnih manjših jazz skupinahzasedbah. Poskus, da bi se vrnil v Michigan je bil neuspešen, ker je bila njegova viza zavrnjena.<ref>John Martin, classmate Class of 1954</ref> Eno leto je študiral na konservatoriju v [[Nürnberg]]u. V 60. letih je igral v plesnem orkestru Radia Nürnberg in v orkestru [[Bert Kämpfert|Berta Kämpferta]]. Leta 1968 je postal član orkestra [[Hamburg|hamburškega]] gledališča (Deutsches Schauspielhaus), ki mu je dirigiral [[Hans Koller]]. Leta 1969 je Herbolzheimer ustanovil zasedbo Rhythm Combination and Brass (RC&B), za katero je napisal večino svojih aranžmajev. Ta big band je bil unikaten v tem, da je imel mednarodno zasedbo osmih trobil in le en saksofon, ki ga je igral [[Herb Geller]].

He returned to Germany in 1957, took up the valve trombone, playing in numerous "jazz cellar open mic" groups. Peter attempted to return to Michigan, but his visa was denied.<ref>John Martin, classmate Class of 1954</ref> For one year he studied at the [[Nuremberg]] Conservatory. In the 1960s he played with the Nuremberg radio dance orchestra and with [[Bert Kämpfert]]'s orchestra. In 1968 he became a member of the pit orchestra of [[Hamburg]] theater (Deutsches Schauspielhaus) directed by [[Hans Koller]]. In 1969 Herbolzheimer formed his ''Rhythm Combination and Brass'' (RC&B) for which he wrote most of the arrangements. This big band was unique in that it had an international lineup of eight brass, but originally only one saxophone, with [[Herb Geller]] in that chair. The list of brass players included [[Allan Botschinsky]] (Denmark), [[Art Farmer]] (USA), [[Dusko Goykovich]] (Bosnia), [[Palle Mikkelborg]] (Denmark), [[Ack van Rooyen]] (Netherlands) and [[Jiggs Whigham]] (USA). The rhythm section consisted of two keyboards, guitar, bass, drums and percussion and included renowned musicians such as [[Dieter Reith]] (Germany), [[Philip Catherine]] (Belgium), [[Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen]] (Denmark), [[Bo Stief]] (Denmark), [[Alex Riel]] (Denmark), [[Grady Tate]] (USA), and [[Nippy Noya]] (Indonesia). For special events the group was augmented as necessary, but the basic combination remained as such for several years. In the late 1970s the band toured successfully with a "jazz gala" program featuring guest stars such as [[Esther Phillips]], [[Stan Getz]], [[Nat Adderley]], [[Gerry Mulligan]], [[Toots Thielemans]], [[Clark Terry]], and [[Albert Mangelsdorff]]. In later years the ''RC&B'' played many concert tours, television shows and jazz festivals. It was later replaced by a regular sized big band, which featured many noted international artists such as [[Dianne Reeves]] and [[Chaka Khan]], that was still active until Peter's death.
