Sunflower Music
Presentation by: Cash Hollistah
Poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow famously described music
as being “the universal language of mankind.” Music transcends
race, gender, class, and geography and throughout history
humans have used music to communicate stories, express
emotions, and connect us to one another and moments in time
and place. Music provides a lifeline when we’re at a crossroads,
reminds us of days gone by, and can provide welcomed
motivation when it’s time to make a change. What is it like to be
a musician from Kansas and what does their music tell us? From
Martina McBride and Melissa Etheridge to Charlie Parker and Janelle Monáe, this presentation highlights numerous artists and musicians from the Sunflower State and takes a deeper look into how the power of place informs and inspires us musically.
