Apollo's Fire
The ancient Greeks were onto something when they assigned the god Apollo to two very important functions. One of his jobs was to carry the sun across the sky each day in his chariot. The other was to be the patron of music. The Cleveland Baroque Orchestra is better known as Apollo's Fire. They're with host Fred Child in the PT studios today, bringing light and music by Bach and Vivaldi. Plus, Day 3 of music and conversation with pianist Andras Schiff on Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier.
