Pioneers who settled the Plains traveled from far and wide, yet endured many similar joys and hardships. David Marsh's goals with his musical program are twofold: 1) to demonstrate the various cultures represented by these common experiences and 2) to share stories and sing songs that arose from homesteaders, cowboys, children's games, and the wonder of the wide open prairie.
