A collection of songs based upon the writings of Will Cather and Carl Sandburg. Originally conceived as a set, but pieces may also used individually. The Sandberg texts which connect the Cather poems are all excerpted from the poem “Prairie.” The music and the Sandburg writing is personal, narrative and expressive and contrasts with Cather’s style of descriptive imagery.
