The program airs on WPRB 103.3 FM, a commercial, non-profit, community-supported independent radio station. The 14,000 watt radio station, once part of Princeton University, broadcasts from Princeton, New Jersey, and is managed and hosted by Princeton University students, and community DJ’s like Rosen. WPRB with its strong signal can be heard in New Jersey, parts of Delaware, Pennsylvania and New York, as well as over the Internet at (www.wprb.com ).〔(WPRB 103.3 FM ), WPRB's official website.〕 Rosen has hosted and produced ''Classical Discoveries'' since May 1997. ==Program Overview== ''Classical Discoveries'' celebrates and showcases little-known music of all periods with an emphasis on the Baroque period and earlier, as well as on the 20th and 21st centuries. The show's primary aim is to allow listening audiences to discover (hence the title ''Classical Discoveries'') the vast amount of music that is being created today from all over the world. With regard to his work Rosen states: "I always want to prove to the world that there is so much wonderful new music fitting every discriminating taste in our century."〔("More About Me", from ''MarvinTheCat'' ), Reflections on Music and Radio from Marvin Rosen.〕 In 2007, ''Classical Discoveries Goes Avant-Garde'' was created. This special edition of ''Classical Discoveries'' features more modern and electronic music. Both radio programs air back to back on Wednesdays from 5:30 to 1pm, with the Avant-Garde edition beginning at 11am. Due to the nature of the station, Rosen often hosts additional times, especially during the student winter and summer breaks.〔("Merry Xmas, Happy New Year and VIVA 21st-century Women" ), by Steve Layton, Sequenza 21/ The Contemporary Classical Music Community.〕 He also occasionally hosts other shows such as Opera and Jazz. Each program broadcasts anywhere between 2 to 5.5 hours with most special programs currently lasting 5.5 hours. On occasion, ''Classical Discoveries'' can last between 11 to 24 hours.〔("Radio Radio: All New All the Time" ), by Steve Layton, Sequenza 21/The Contemporary Classical Music Community.〕〔("Contemporary Canon by Susan Van Dongen, ''Time Off (of The Princeton Packet)'', August 21, 2009 ), from (Classical Discoveries and Marvin Rosen in The Press and Internet ).〕 Each typical program is unique and is a showcase for mostly lesser and unknown composers and works. In his programs one will find examples of folk and ethnic music, jazz, pop, and Rock and Roll to illustrate various musical points.〔("Special Programs" ), from the Classical Discoveries website.〕 However, the main focus of the program is to introduce radio listeners to new music and living composers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Classical Discoveries」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
