The Well-Tempered Ear 
A nice selection of chamber music running from the more traditional Mozart to Dvorak and Shostakovitch. Good programming.
Speaking of which, I’m quite pleased the direction that Wisconsin Public Radio (WPR) has taken recently. Looking at their programming, it is obvious that they are responding to listener’s requests for newer and less played music. Their programming for Sunday, 14 May, for instance, includes traditional composers like Haydn,Telemann, Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven but also a strong mix of the new and not played so much: by the likes of Shostakovitch, Sibelius, and even Phillip Glass, John Rutter, Gershwin, and even Andrew Iannaccone.
