is expanding your access to classical music throughout the day WCMU Classical!

We are expanding our classical offerings into a 24/7/365 service

With the help of nationally recognized hosts from American Public Media’s Classical 24, WCMU will continue to guide you into the heart of the classical repertoire, with carefully selected playlists that represent both classical favorites, lesser-known works, and the newest compositions.
