The Globe-Miami and San Carlos community attended a free and entertaining program featuring F. Arturo Rosales from Arizona State University on Friday, September 5^th, 2003 at the Bullion Plaza Cultural Center and Museum in Miami.

Dr. Rosales, a Professor of History presented a program entitled "Dos Fronteras:

Anglo and Mexican Frontier and Country Music."

Through performance, discussion, and slides, participants discovered the parallels between Anglo frontier and cowboy music and Mexican norteno and rural songs. Love for pastoral living, horse racing, affection for tending livestock, loneliness, an emphasis on honesty and simplicity, family feuds, and scrapes with the law permeated both genres of music, as demonstrated by Rosales and an accompanying musician.

This was the first of three programs scheduled for the first Friday of September, October and November at the Miami Museum.
The free program was made possible by the Arizona Humanities Council.
