The Latvian composer Peteris Vasks has said, "Today, the spiritual dimension has been lost. My intention is to provide food for the soul, and this is what I preach in my works." It's what he preaches, and it's also what he delivers. Steve Seel plays Vasks' "Lauda" on this week's program, plus music by Fazil Say, Sarah Kirkland Snider, Ola Gjeilo, and more.
