New Music Radio

May 15, 2007 By cnp Leave a Comment

I found a new music radio station online the other day, and I thought some of you would be interested in having the link:

Hear and Now

Quoting from the BBC website:

“Hear and Now is the main contemporary music programme on Radio 3. It features live concerts and studio sessions from the best new music groups, and premieres of BBC commissioned works.”

You can listen to their programs online. Some of the previous programs have been:

  • 19 May 07 The Dutch school 1/2
  • 12 May 07 Simon Bainbridge
  • 05 May 07 Geoffrey Poole
  • 28 Apr 07 British composers
  • 21 Apr 07 Ligeti Remembered
  • 14 Apr 07 Plus Minus
  • 07 Apr 07 Music & Politics

When: Saturdays 22:30 – 24:00. I will definitely be tunning in everytime I can. If you now of any other stations please feel free to post a link on the comments section.
