  • Public Radio Classical Audience January 2017
    Public Radio Classical Audience January 2017 Background & Executive Summary § On behalf of the Classical Music Rising project Scott Williams approached NPR to assess what NPR Audience Insights has learned from classical music stations in PPM markets that might apply to all markets. § Using a Mon-Sun 6a-7p schedule, we identified 26 stations whose schedules consist at least 90% of classical music programming in PPM markets and 113 stations in diary metro markets. § Classical music stations in PPM markets… § comprise a larger percentage of listening § Have seen significant growth in listening since 2012; the growth spans from 6a to midnight § These stations have experienced double digit percentage growth in cume and AQH since Spring 2012 across each major daypart (morning, midday, afternoon and evenings) § In terms of percent growth, the largest increases occurred in the MF 3p-7p daypart: (cume 16% and AQH 35%) § Diary market stations … § Have not seen dramatic listening growth. We see a slight bump between 2p and 7p § Have experienced a similar growth in cume listeners, but AQH growth is considerably more modest, and has been flat in the morning daypart and nearly flat in the midday. § Time spent listening in PPM markets has grown over the past year, while it has declined in diary markets. That said, TSL is greater in diary markets, as one might expect using a diary methodology. § Percent of audience that is P1 has remained fairly consistent in PPM and diary markets § Listening to classical music stations in PPM and diary markets is growing in the 65+ demo. § I would be hesitant to draw any listening conclusions in diary markets, given the vastly different AQH measures.

    STATE OF THE MEDIA: AUDIO TODAY A FOCUS ON PUBLIC RADIO DECEMBER 2014 STATE OF THE MEDIA: AUDIO TODAY Q4 Copyright © 2014 The Nielsen Company 1 THE ECLECTIC AUDIO LANDSCAPE In today’s fragmented media world, where consumers have more choices and more access to content than ever before, audio remains strong. 91.3% of all Americans (age 12+) are using radio during the week. Since the beginning of 2010, the national weekly radio audience has grown from 239.7 million to 243 million listeners tuning in across more than 250 local markets in every corner of the country. 243 MILLION AMERICANS LISTEN TO RADIO EACH WEEK In a time of changing habits and new digital platforms, radio’s consistent audience numbers are quite remarkable. With the holidays just around the corner, consumers will be turning to the radio to catch their favorite sounds of the season or stay in touch with what’s happening in their local community each day. PUBLIC RADIO OFFERS AN UNCOMMON MIX OF PROGRAMMING FOR 32 MILLION LISTENERS This year we have profiled the overall radio landscape, multicultural audiences and network radio listeners, and for our final report we turn our attention to Public Radio; the more than 900 rated stations which offer an eclectic mix of news, entertainment, music and cultural programming in markets large and small. Public Radio is a unique and relevant part of the lives of 32 million Americans and exists in large part due to the financial support of the listeners we examine in the following pages.

COURTESY OF SOUTHERN VERMONT COLLEGE Listen 0:00 The list of Vermont's architectural gems include the Statehouse, numerous unique barns and its iconic New England church buildings. But Southern Vermont College in Bennington is home to another structure that should be on the list: The Orchard House. Now serving as the main building on campus, it was built in the 1910s by wealthy Ohio businessman Edward Everett. He made his fortune from producing Lightning jars, the precursors of the Mason jar. The Orchard House served as a summer home for Everett's family and was patterned after the English feudal mansions of the 14th century. According to Southern Vermont College President David Evans, “the outside is made from blue limestone that was quarried on the property and down the road a little bit in Pownal, Vermont. It has red terra-cotta roof tiles that were made in Italy.” But he notes, “it’s a terrible building for the Vermont climate.
