No Tears Project ensemble honors Little Rock Nine, promotes civil-rights dialogue

The No Tears Project ensemble performs recently in Memphis. The jazz-inflected collective of musicians, dancers, and spoken word artists -- formed in 2017 by Arkansas-based pianist and composer Christopher Parker and vocalist Kelley Hurt in partnership with the Oxford American magazine -- will perform Sept. 25 at the Ron Robinson Theater as part of Little Rock Nine Day.

Overall, Little Rock is no slacker in the cultural game.
