It might surprise you that more than a few composers working today have a strong affinity for early music, dating from the Renaissance, Baroque, or even earlier. Why is that? Steve features music by Arvo Part -- a composer whose inspirations sometimes reach back as far as the middle ages -- as well as a piece by Michael Nyman written for the early music group Fretwork and the music of Philip Glass performed by the baroque group The King's Violins and countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo.
