Pipe Dreams


The only reason I have a tuner is to listen to public radio. Here in Houston we are blessed with the excellent KUHT and every Sunday night there is a program called "Pipe Dreams" which originates in Minnesota. I never imagined I would enjoy pipe organ music until I stumbled upon this program. Does anyone else have any favorite programs on the airwaves, public or commercial, that they would like to share?

Here in Cleveland, we also get the syndicated program, "Pipe Dreams". It's a great program, and I sometimes get to listen to it in the car, but I don't have a "real" tuner in my two-channel system.
On one of the local classical stations (WCLV, which is also available on the web at www.wclv.com, I believe) is a local program that plays music of living composers--mostly from our area. The program is appropriately called, "Not the Dead, White, Male Composers' Hour". It is a great opportunity to hear contemporary works that one might not hear elsewhere. About 30% of it is utter crap, but there is often some very exciting music.
