Classic FM: Broadcast opportunities

Get your group heard by one million music lovers!

Classic FM is the UK's largest commercial radio station with an audience of almost seven million listeners. As part of our ongoing partnership with them, we regularly offer member groups the opportunity to submit their CDs for broadcast on Classic FM’s flagship The Full Works and Drive programmes (these shows each enjoy around one millions listeners every week!).

We have been offering members this opportunity since the partnership was launched in 2008, and the response from listeners has been hugely positive. There have been several high-profile broadcasts, including an afternoon of performances by member choirs throughout Christmas Day in 2009 in a programme entitled Making Music – Christmas Day, and a fortnight of daily broadcasts leading up to Christmas 2011.

We will shortly be inviting members to submit recordings for more broadcasts, so please keep an eye on this site for more news.

Here are also some helpful online guidance and tips from Classic FM about creating recordings suitable for radio broadcast. Please note that these tips were written with choirs in mind but also have relevance for any group recordings.
