Some people are familiar with how 20th century composers like Respighi and Vaughan Williams used Renaissance music in popular, modern works. For others, their only contact with Early Music might be Judy Collins or John Renbourn, or even more contemporary groups like Miranda Sex Garden and Dead Can Dance. This week, host Robert Aubry Davis and guest John Guillory will tackle how music half a millennium old sounds as fresh as tomorrow.

Mendelssohn – Symphonien 4 & 5. (London Symphony Orchestra, Claudio Abbado.) Deutsche Grammophon – 415 974-2.
