    Monday through Thursday, 8pm –10pm, KMFA focuses on the art of the ensemble. Monday evening will spotlight the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and on Tuesday we travel abroad for performances on Live! from the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. On Wednesdays at 8pm, Dianne Donovan showcases local concert events just in time for the weekend on Classical Austin. Following at 9pm is an hour dedicated to the intimate art of chamber music, featuring assorted national series and local programs that spotlight smaller ensembles in performance, starting with the with the Spoleto Chamber Music Festival program. Thursdays on KMFA continue to feature orchestral performances from around the world as Brian Newhouse hosts SymphonyCast.

    What better way to spend a Friday night than at the movies? Effective January 8th, you can enjoy Brian Satterwhite and Film Score Focus at 8pm, followed at 9pm by Tony Morris with Classical Guitar Alive.

    On Saturdays, you’ll get to enjoy a variety of programs, hosted by David Crews in the mornings and Judlyne Lilly Gibson in the afternoons. This line-up will include NPR's From the Top, as well as locally produced summertime shows such as Wind Sounds, What's So Funny, Into the Light, and What’s New?, a local program featuring your favorite KMFA hosts and their favorite selections from the latest classical-music releases.

    On Sunday mornings, start your day on the right note with Sunday Baroque. Suzanne Bona brings you three hours of bright and beautiful music from Bach, Telemann, Handel and countless other Baroque masters. Sara Hessel provides the perfect complement with Ancient Voices at 9am, followed by Jeffrey Blair and Choral Classics at 10am. Your Sunday morning is complete with the encore broadcast of Classical Guitar Alive at 11am.

    Later in the day, some favorite shows have changed time-slots. Film Score Focus repeats at 7pm, followed by Pipeworks with Austin's own Chris Teel. On Sunday nights you have your own personal concert hall performance as Rich Upton presents a full-length, uninterrupted orchestral work on Sunday Night Symphony at 9pm.

    Looking for an oasis after a crazy day? KMFA takes you away with sanity and serenity every night at 10pm on Reverie. Lauren Rico will be your host for two hours of carefully crafted music with limited interruption. The perfect music creates the perfect mood as your day winds down.
