Since 2008, Song of Pueblo has been a multi-media performance with historic photographs, paintings and video reenactments projected behind the musicians.  Together with the narrations, lyrics and exquisite music, audiences of all ages are deeply moved by this memorable show.

This collection of original songs creates an anthology of music, each song is a story of epic historical events for example: The battle between Spanish General Juan Batista de Anza and the Comanche Chief Cuerno Verde, in the    1700s 

  • The founding of the steel mill, 1800s
  • The great flood of 1921, 
  • The tidal wave of immigration,
  • The Ludlow Massacre, 1914
  •  The creation of the patchwork of ethnic neighborhoods that comprise Pueblo.
