Here of a Sunday Morning


Sundays, 9:00-11:00 AM EST (8:00-10:00 AM CST for Chicago and vicinity; same local times while Daylight Savings Time is in effect), live broadcast (WBAI, 99.5 FM, Pacifica Radio in New York, and since the early 1970s) of primarily early music, usually, but not exclusively in historically informed performances, with talk about the people who created it, and the conditions under which they made it.  Every month or two, there is a "New Releases" program, which presents new and interesting recordings, but otherwise the program explores the history of music in a reasonably systematic way.  To listen on-line, visit www.hoasm.org/Listen.html.

Naxos Web Radio


Naxos Web Radio is the premier streaming service from Naxos, offering over 80 channels of quality music in pre-programmed playlists, including channels devoted to Early Music (both sacred and secular), also Baroque Orchestral, Baroque Ensemble Music, and Baroque Harpsichord & Piano.  Classical music channels are also available.

Millennium of Music


Millennium of Music is an exploration into the sources and mainstreams of European music for the thousand years before the birth of Bach.  Millennium of Music has been presenting the vast scope of great music leading up to early baroque for over 18 years.  It features the evolution of sacred music, east and west, live performances by the best ensembles in the field of early music, and the ever growing number of releases in the field.  Broadcast Wednesday evenings, 10:00 PM to 11:00 PM, to the Chicago area, by WFMT, 98.7 FM.  Check the program web site for broadcasts elsewhere, including possible Internet broadcasts.

Sunday Baroque


Sunday Baroque is a radio program devoted to the exploration of Baroque and early music.  A production of National Public Radio, Sunday Baroque celebrates the current wealth of recorded repertoire available, with great performances by yesterday's and today's best performers.  No Chicago broadcast, and to the best of our knowledge not yet available on-line (but we list it here anyway in the fervent hope that either or both might happen).
