May 2021 Where to Tune In

Five Years of Exceptional Classical Programming on Maine Public Classical!

IVE YEARS AGO THIS MAY, Maine Public launched an entirely new radio service called FMaine Public Classical with the expectation of sharpening Maine Public’s cultural focus and providing our audience with the robust classical programming that our listeners and members had requested for years. Envisioned also as the home for opera, jazz, and specialty musical programs and performances, the new radio service initially launched over just a few signals and today is broadcast over seven frequencies across much of Maine and streamed online from Maine Public’s website.

Reaching this significant milestone would not have been possible without individuals, foundations, and businesses across Maine recognizing the value of the arts and how important access to cultural programming can be. One such individual is John Wasileski and his team at OceanView at Falmouth who continue to support Maine Public’s efforts in the arts as the Premier Sponsor of Maine Public Classical.

We are celebrating this anniversary all this month on both Maine Public Classical and Maine Public Radio by airing short messages from our staff and some of our long-time listeners sharing what Maine Public Classical has meant to them. We want to hear from you, too! What has Maine Public Classical meant to you? What is your Maine Public Classical MOMENT?

Send us a brief note to [email protected] or write to us at Music, Maine Public, 1450 Lisbon Street, Lewiston, Maine 04240 and share a story or two of why classical music is an important fixture in your life. We will share many of the submissions with our audience in a variety of ways over the course of May.

Thank you to everyone who has made Maine Public Classical possible, supported the service, and tune in each week. The future remains very bright for Maine Public Classical, the home for classical music in Maine.
