Since 2005, Les Concerts de Poche has been developing high-standard, inclusive musical projects with the finest performers of classical, lyrical and jazz music, giving priority to young people, as well as people and geographical areas farthest from culture. A travelling team, it organises workshops and concerts, with inclusive pricing and co-creates projects with local communities. The association enables the most vulnerable and isolated people to regain their self-confidence, as well as develop individually and collectively through the experience of music at its highest level. Based in six regional offices across France, the team is constantly on the road, developing projects everywhere and for everyone. The Fonds K pour la Musique supports the initiatives carried out in Reims.
