General admission tickets are $20 while 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock students and employees can receive one ticket for free with ID. Conducted by Dr. Bevan Keating, the 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock Community Chorus is comprised of nearly 100 members from the university and the community who perform choral masterpieces accompanied by a full orchestra. The 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock Community Chorus joins with the adult and children鈥檚 choirs of Second Presbyterian Church, the Praeclara Vocal Company, and professional orchestra players from across the state to present two choral compositions that celebrate the fusion of English poetry and song. John Rutter鈥檚 鈥淢ass of the Children鈥� mixes the traditional Greek and Latin text of鈥檚 鈥淢issa Brevis鈥� with the English poetry of William Blake and Bishop Thomas Ken in a five-movement work for two choirs and orchestra. First performed in New York in 2003, this uplifting piece brings together soprano and baritone solo passages that harmonize and contrast with the choral passages sung by the children鈥檚 voices (the songs of innocence) and by the adult group (the songs of experience). Shannon Rookey and Luke Angelo, members of the Praeclara Vocal Company, will perform as the soprano and baritone soloists. Keating prefaces the larger Rutter work with Ralph Vaughan Williams鈥� 17-minute 鈥淪erenade to Music,鈥� another British composition that offers a study in contrasts of voices. Tickets can be purchased online at or at the door. For more information, contact Karen Kuralt at 501-569-8334 or kmkuralt@ualr.edu.
