About This Station
WQXR is New York City's only classical music radio station, operated by WNYC Studios. Programming ranges from Baroque to contemporary American composers — Aaron Copland, Leonard Bernstein, Samuel Barber, John Adams, George Gershwin — with regular broadcasts from the Metropolitan Opera and New York Philharmonic.
