In our busy, always-on and always engaged world, it can be hard to find peace and quiet. WSCL 89.5 can provide a respite from the hustle and bustle with our Sunday night programming. Tune in at 6 p.m. as host Michael Barone bring you two hours of music from the world's best pipe organs on Pipedreams.
Venerable music educator David Dubal brings us the great works of piano repertoire at 8 p.m. on The Piano Matters. Then, slip back hundreds of years before Bach and hear the best ancient and medieval music on Millennium of Music at 9 p.m. So put down those cell phones, turn off those televisions and, as the Beatles taught us, “relax, turn off your mind and float downstream.”
