FolkTales set to Music from Around the Globe
South America - The Two Girls with Harpist Edmar Castaneda and Bill Gordh
Storyteller Bill Gordh and Colombian harpist Edmar Castaneda improvise the South American folktale "The Two Girls" - a cautionary tale of two girls: one from a humble home, whose compassion earns her a well-deserved reward for helping an elderly woman in their village. The other girl who is spoiled and cruel, tries to take advantage of the same woman... but is in for a rude awakening.
