Union Station Centennial Experience
“The Monument Comes Alive” was a never-before-seen high-tech journey created by Quixotic to show
100 Years of Union Station History. Using state of the art projection mapping and twelve 20K digital projectors, the exterior of Union Station was transformed into an enormous 3D digital canvas that soared a full ten stories tall and one city block wide.
From George Guastello, president and CEO of Union Station Kansas City:
“We have created an event for the entire community that not only pays tribute to Kansas City’s most iconic landmark, but celebrates our shared history. That history has been captured and brought to life by the creative visionaries at Quixotic, who took the crowd on a fully immersive digital ride the entire city will be talking about for many years to come.

POISON ALICE COOPER LIVE KAUFMAN CENTER FOR PERFORMING ARTS KANSAS CITY MO 8 6 2018
PSU students perform with world renowned alumnus at Kauffman Center in KC
World-renowned operatic tenor Robert Dean Smith grew up in the tiny town of Chetopa, Kansas and once dreamed of making music his career. A degree in music from Pittsburg State University helped put him on the path.
This month, he’s returning home for two concerts with PSU students, one on campus in the Bicknell Family Center for the Arts and one at the esteemed Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in Kansas City — a dream come true, the students say.
The Kauffman concert is being underwritten by Crown Automotive in Lawrence, Kansas, owned by three other PSU alumni: Miles (‘71) and Paula (‘72) Schnaer, and their daughter, Mandi Schnaer Dow (‘99).
“To be performing at the Kauffman with a musician like Robert Dean Smith is truly a dream,” said Amelia Markley, of Joplin, Missouri, who studied as both a vocal major and cellist during her undergraduate degree and as a graduate student is an orchestral conducting major.
Markley is a member of the Southeast Kansas Symphony at Pittsburg State University, the group that will perform with Smith in both concerts. It is comprised of students, faculty, and community members.
“It is such a huge honor to play at the Kauffman Center with him,” said Madeline Gay, a Prairie Village junior in music performance who plays the viola. “I feel tons of pride in playing along with him and the Southeast Kansas Symphony. It’s always been my dream to play on the Kauffman stage.”
Like Markley and Gay and their classmates, Smith spent a great deal of time in McCray Hall, home to PSU’s Department of Music. He graduated with two bachelor’s degrees in music in 1980 and went on to complete his master’s degree in 1982 at New York’s famed Juilliard School.
Smith said his time at PSU was an important step toward his career, because he had several professors who were both knowledgeable and inspiring.
“There was a lot of positive influence,” he said. “It formed my whole way of thinking for my career after that.”
“Coming from Chetopa, I knew that there was another world out there — the music world,” Smith said. “But I didn’t have any access to it. I was able to find that world, or at least was able to get started in it, at Pitt State.”
Smith has since earned awards and accolades performing in opera houses around the world, including Munich, Vienna, La Scala Milan, MET New York, Rome, Naples, Paris, Berlin, Dresden, Hamburg, London, Bolshoi Moscow, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Madrid, Barcelona, Budapest, Toulouse, Zürich, and Tokyo.
He has performed in concert with the Vienna Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the London Symphony Orchestra, and many, many more notable and prestigious groups.
Raul Munguia, artistic director and conductor of the Southeast Kansas Symphony, said the repertoire of both concerts will be identical and will feature two original compositions by PSU Department of Music faculty, John Ross and Barbara York, as well as pieces by Richard Wagner, Maurice Ravel, Bryan Reyes, Richard Struss, and Giuseppe Verdi.
“We are so very fortunate to be able to provide this incredible opportunity for our students, and with our faculty and community members who play in the orchestra,” Munguia said. “It truly is the experience of a lifetime, and we can’t thank the Schnaer family enough.”

Downtown Kansas City ????????
This video captures the cool vibe of downtown Kansas City. The countless industrial buildings renovated into residential lofts, the $400MM modern Kaufmann Center for the Performing Arts, and the vibrant street art in the Crossroads District reminded me of Soho, NYC. No doubt there is more than BBQ, jazz, and baseball in Kansas City!

While parts of the United States are getting hit with another round of snow and ice, Kansas City, Missouri received its second snowfall of the season. Today, Sunday, December 8, 2013 KCMO received more than a dusting. With temperatures in the high to mid teens icing on my windshield was a little more than my wipers could handle. Downtown, the salt trucks were out caring for the streets and at MCI the planes were being deiced before departing.
