About this listen

 In which an Indian horse fair unfolds with vibrant scenes of Arickara hospitality, the social labours and amusements of men and women, and the mounting tensions wrought by rumours of lurking Sioux enemies. The narrative culminates in a solemn yet triumphant return of a war party, blending festal rejoicing with poignant lamentations that reveal the tender-heartedness beneath the fierce exterior of the plains tribes.
