About
From the campus of the University of South Dakota at the National Music Museum, you’ll hear some of the amazing historical instruments in their collection, including an historic fortepiano, a vintage guitar, and a unique gamelan. You’ll also meet a 13-year-old who lives on a ranch in the Black Hills of South Dakota. She raises steers to sell in the fall, rides her horse, Dandy, feeds the chickens, and she’s one fine classical violinist.
