Contemporary Classical Internet Radio



It was my pleasure and privilege to have been a part of this endeavor for almost a decade -- from the beginning of 2005
until the person who ran the site simply could not afford the music-licensing fees, which were about to go up exponentially.
(I never asked for, nor received any monetary compensation for of my programs.)

Each segment ran about an hour, and featured a single composer or performer. They were similar to my efforts on WNIB
(where my programs usually ran 90 minutes) and WNUR (where they are restricted to about 45-50 minutes). There would
be a piece of music, then a bit of interview, then more music, then more interview, then one last piece of music.

Here is a full list of the programs I supplied, and their first-air dates . . . . . . . . .
