The Alcove Spring Historic Park in Marysville, Kansas, will host the Orchestra on the Oregon Trail, an all-day experience with music and events for all ages Sunday, Sept. 6. The Topeka Symphony Orchestra and the natural wonder of Alcove Spring will combine as a tribute to a wilderness traversed by the pioneers. As part of their 70th season, under the direction of Kyle Wiley Pickett, the TSO will perform an Old West concert complete with musical themes from Western movies, the sounds of the pioneer days and songs that highlight the American spirit. Information and tickets are available on their website.
