Welcome to CMPA Live promoted by the Centre for Music and Performing Arts, Colchester Institute.

This is an exciting time for the centre as we launch CMPA Live to replace the Swinburne Hall Concert Series that has been successfully running in recent years. The new branding also sees a move from the traditional Wednesday evening events to a more extensive series incorporating the principal professional events now occurring on Thursdays complemented by a range of other events on Wednesdays and Fridays.

Another new venture is the launch of our Young Artists Platform on Wednesday nights where recent graduates and current students perform in a variety of ensemble and solo performances.
