Turning 40 with George Steel

Thursday, May 31, 2007

Airs Thursday, May 31 at 7PM on 93.9FM
George Steel has been an important advocate for new music as director of the Miller Theater. In this segment of WNYC's American Music Festival, Steel talks with composers who recently joined the ranks of those in their 40s (a group Steel belongs to as well). Derek Bermel, Jennifer Higdon and Jason Eckardt join Steel to examine how pop forms such as punk, hip hop and '80's rock informed the musical dialect of their generation.
