February: New on Classical 104.9 FM

Here at Classical 104.9 FM, we really enjoy being able to broadcast the newest releases from the current generations of classical music superstars... But, as our music library continues to grow, we’re often discovering CDs that were released over the past few years that we missed out on obtaining the first time around.

And, while some of these amazing recordings aren’t the newest-of-the-new, we’re still thrilled to be able to get them into our library AND on the air for you.

Here’s a sampling — and, Spotify playlists — of just a few of the “new” releases that we’ve added to our Classical 104.9 FM music library for February… Enjoy!
