New programs begin Monday, Feb. 2, 2026:

Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra
Mondays at 8:00 p.m.

A two hour show of new music, and new releases, with an in-depth look at classical music.

Feminine Fusion
Thursdays at 8:00 a.m.

Feminine Fusion is a weekly 1-hour radio program that highlights the influence of women in classical music. These are the women throughout history and into the present day who create, perform, and inspire. Composer/announcer Diane Jones of WCNY-FM in Syracuse, NY is your host, and every week showcases some of these remarkable women.

Analog Masters

Discover the breathtaking beauty of pre-digital classical music recordings on this weekly series. Hear the greatest recordings of the past restored to pristine clarity and sonic splendor.

Hosted by 50-year veteran broadcaster Tom Godell.

Played in Oregon

Played in Oregon shines the spotlight on fantastic live music from around Oregon and the Pacific Northwest, from performances given by visiting national and international artists, to local groups including professional, semi-professional and youth ensembles.
