The Hendrix College Department of Music and the University of Central Arkansas College of Fine Arts and Communication will host the international vocal ensemble Theatre of Voices. The performance is free and open to the public. There will be a reception in Trieschmann Gallery after the concert. Widely recognized as one of the Europe's foremost vocal groups, Theatre of Voices received a Grammy Award for The Little Match Girl Passion in 2010, the group's 20th anniversary. The group regularly performs at Edinburgh Festival, Barbican Centre, and Carnegie Hall, where they premiered David Lang's The Little Match Girl Passion, which was commissioned for Theatre of Voices and won the 2008 Pulitzer Prize. Current projects include music ranging from Perotin to Dowland and Buxtehude, and many of today's most eminent composers such as Berio, Pärt, Reich, Cage, and Stockhausen.
