KETR presents blocks of classical music on Sundays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 7 p.m. to midnight.

The program featuring early European music can be heard at 9 a.m. Sundays, following 'Weekend Edition Sunday' and preceding 'Sunday Baroque.'

The complete experience of KETR's classical music offerings on Sundays can now be enjoyed by late risers as well as early birds.

Millennium of Music, a one-hour radio program featuring European music from the pre-Baroque period, is now heard at 9 a.m. on KETR. The show began in 1975 at public radio station WJCT in Jacksonville, Fla., as a Sunday morning program called Musica Antiqua. Today Millennium of Music is enjoyed by fans of early music at more than 150 non-commercial stations nationwide.

After Millennium of Music concludes, KETR presents the nationally acclaimed Sunday Baroque from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sundays. KETR also broadcasts classical music Sunday evenings, with SymphonyCast, Concierto, and Classical Guitar Alive.

The schedule change comes following the departure of Krista Tippett’s On Being from the 9 a.m. Sunday hour after that program went out of production. The New Yorker Radio Hour, KETR’s newest show, currently occupies Millennium’s old spot at 6 a.m. Sunday.
