Aimed at connecting our diverse community through our shared appreciation of music, the Center for Musical Arts’ 2023-24 concert series celebrates musical excellence and an expansive mix of musical genres—all in our welcoming and intimate performance space.
Drawing from the music of Django Reinhardt and the “hot club” style of early 20th century jazz, LaPompe performs a fresh collection of classics and original compositions. Presenting complex and virtuosic arrangements with rustic and acoustic instrumentation including acoustic guitars, upright bass, violin, they have described themselves as “mountain swing” — the kind of music that fits as well in a log cabin as it does in a speakeasy or on the big stage.
