Broadcaster Gary Fountain tells us… “Missy and I returned years ago to the New Haven area because of the quality of the life of the arts here, and classical music is a significant part of that package.

There are concerts in town (Yale, Haven String Quartet, Kallos Chamber Music, Elm City Consort), east (Musical Masterworks, Eastern Connecticut State Orchestra, Essex Winter Series), northeast (Hartford Symphony, Hartt School of Music), north (Music Mountain, Norfolk, Tanglewood, Bard), and west (Caramoor, Sanctuary Series, symphonies in Ridgefield, Bridgeport, Norwalk, Stamford, Greenwich, and other cities) just to name a few.

And, then, NYC is an easy train ride or drive away.

WMNR is perfectly situated as a center for both presenting this exciting classical music scene and promoting classical music in the region.

I have worked with and broadcast concerts for some of the very organizations for which I moved to this area. I broadcast many concerts that I have attended.

I can’t think of any region that has this wealth of classical music offerings, and another program like this one at WMNR Fine Arts Radio.”
