Radio Swiss Classic in Berne, Switzerland is my favorite station. They stream music 24/7 with very little interruption. They also have Radio Swiss Jazz. I think the station is state owned. You have your choice to listen in either French, German, Italian, or English. Not a day goes by without me listening to this station, especially when browsing the Internet.

SWISS JAZZ !  Now that must be interesting!

Let me recommend WDPR out of Dayton, which has a very good selection of things: I have heard them program Pierre Boulez with no apologies!  ;)

Then we'll just have to beat an apology out of them!   >:D
When, a few months before his death, Rachmaninov lamented that he no longer had the "strength and fire" to compose, friends reminded him of the Symphonic Dances, so charged with fire and strength. "Yes," he admitted. "I don't know how that happened. That was probably my last flicker."

I believe that program also offered Penderecki and a host of others in the same club!

I recently moved from Southern California to Phoenix, AZ and we do have a decent classical station, but the playlist can get repetitive.

Here are three American streaming stations that tend to be live, 100% classical and seem to have extensive libraries.

http://www.kmfa.org/ out of Austin, TX
https://www.kcme.org/ out of Colorado Springs, CO
and: https://www.wdav.org/ out of Davidson, NC


Out of Europe, I like:

http://www.radioswissclassic.ch/en/  which is the public station from Switzerland

and BBC Radio 3: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/bbc_radio_three


A hidden gem might be WMNR from Monroe, CT, (www.wmnr.org) who has a variety of volunteer hosts on weekdays who apparently bring in their own CD's and LP's.

Lots of wonderful music.

I created www.classicalconcertsonline.com to keep track of all the symphonic concerts that get broadcast online. Hopefully others find the information helpful.

What about KUSC from Southern California? It's live and excellent. I would think it would be an obvious choice having lived there.

KUSC is solid!! I live in SoCal again and have it on in the car whenever I go anywhere. The 24/7 film music stream on their website gets super repetitive though.

Sorry. I killed that site, it wasn't an archive of downloadable concerts but links to the various radio stations that streamed concerts on their website
