Radio Swiss Classic Music. Pure.

Classical music relaxes and is the best antidote to stress. The commercial-free Radio Swiss Classic is particularly appreciated by music lovers who like to listen more closely. A broad cross-section from different eras and different styles of classical music best describes the programme. In addition to compositions by famous masters one regularly discovers works by less well-known composers. Around half of the tracks come from musicians in Switzerland. Lovers of classical music know: With Radio Swiss Classic life is a symphony.
