I can’t hear any music this morning with the WRCJ Window Media Player. I briefly heard some music with the Listen Live on the WRCJ web site, then could not hear any music, but can hear Dr. Dave when he speaks. Was not able to hear this morning’s Sousalarm…
Hi Phil, does it work if you copy this address into your web browser? http://pnj-01.stream101.com:9035/live
I had the same problem this morning (12/3/21). I tried rebooting my PC and the problem went away. I can now listen to the Windows Media Player without a problem, so far…

That commercial that has the cell phone alarm at the beginning of it with all the honking needs to go. I listen to this station to clam down, not be reminded of my alarm and traffic!
Sometimes such a sound startles me when I’m driving (I always have WRCJ on in the car).

Hello Christine, that was Cesar Franck’s Sonata in A (transcribed for flute and piano) performed by James Galway on flute and Martha Argerich on piano.
I really enjoyed listening to Peter Whorf and Dave Wagner chat together during the Funding Drive! They should do that more often – not just in the Funding Drive!
Hi Bruce, glad you enjoyed it but are you sure making it a regular thing is a good idea? That’s a lot of crazy in one room…
Lol! Kind of like Click ‘n Clack but without the wit!
I know they enjoy being back in the studio with their colleagues, but I miss Co-Hosts Maggie and Jake!
They wanted a raise if they were going to be making a commute to the office but we just couldn’t do that. There are rumors they are starting their own podcast.
Oh, My goodness, Please pass this on to Peter Whorf and David Wagner. Numberphile is a YouTube channel that is dedicated to interesting math and numbers. Brady Haran, the producer recently made a video about the mathematical constructs that JS Bach used. Phenomenal! Don’t be put off by the title “Music on a Clear Möbius Strip” which makes the concept sound impossible to comprehend. Brady interviews a mathematician Marcus Du Sautoy, who breaks down Bach’s music in a very straightforward way, but is VERY revealing of Bach’s genius. Search the title on YouTube or go directly to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sToqbqP0tFk.
Thanks Chris, that sounds very interesting. We will pass this along to them.
What was the tune tonight (7:00 pm) right after “Night Time is the Right Time”? Thanks
Hi Helen, after “Night Time is the Right Time” was “Hard Times” by Ray Charles from the album “Fathead – Ray Charles Presents David Newman”.
Thanks WorkerB!
Hi Helen, actually the song was called “Hard Times” and it is from the album called “Fathead: Ray Charles Presents David “Fathead” Newman”. I always post a playlist for the “Swing Set” on this website, but we don’t really have a spot for playlist questions when we’re in fundraiser mode. But, if you want more information, you can always email me direct at lyohn@dptv.org. Thanks so much for listening and for loving jazz on WRCJ.
Thank you, Ms. Yohn. Had a driveway moment with my kid.
Good – so glad to hear that. It’s a real compliment to a radio host from a listener to learn that they created a “driveway moment”. I’m touched and I’m glad that the music touched YOU!
Hello! I started listening to WRCJ when I started working remotely from home – it fit the bill perfectly. While a newbie to classical music (despite my father’s efforts), I have come to enjoy it quite a bit. So much so that I’m disappointed if I miss the Souza alarm in the mornings! Thanks for the great music. (And Hello Worker B – just so you know you’re appreciated too!)
Bruce
Welcome Bruce, thank you for tuning in! If you miss the Sousalarm, no worries, there’s another one around the corner. It’s nice to be appreciated, thanks!
Dave mentioned a pilgrimage he made to Lincoln Cathedral. That led to a cascade of web surfing just now and ended up at the Paston Letters, a correspondence collection from the 18th Century by the Paston family. May make that my pilgrimage! https://www.thisispaston.co.uk/
Thank you Dave and WRCJ
Hi Evan, we accept your cascade of web surfing as pilgrimage. We hope you reached enlightenment!
I followed Dave’s suggestion and just looked up Elise Hall’s photo in her regalia – awesome!
Thanks for the interesting information about the musicians and pieces that you all share.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you Jason, we try not to talk too much but still give those interesting tidbits and related info that listeners might enjoy.
Is workerb a pseudonym ever used by someone famous? e.g. Dr. Dave?
No, no one famous, just one of the many busy little bees behind the scenes who help keep the station going. There’s also WorkerA, WorkerC, WorkerD…
Hello,
I just made a donation & wanted to write a comment about how much this station has meant to me & my family during the pandemic. My father & I would listen to the same amazing music together while he was in lock-up during the beginning of the pandemic. I loved being able to call him, have him turn his Alexa to WRCJ & we would share the Gershwin, Copland, Bach, the Sunday Swing set, Wind & Rhythm, Michigan made music and so much more. One time in the car, we even heard some of Ken Burn’s Civil war sound track together. It is now harder to listen to it without a few tears. but it has been a saving Grace & built lasting memories for me. Many, many thanks!
Amy O’Rourke
Thank you for sharing that Amy, that is very touching. We appreciate your donation.
I live in Wisconsin. When I want to feel closer to my mom in the moment I turn on https://www.wrcjfm.org
I know that day or night, the Classical Days and Jazzy nights are turned on at my mom’s house, upstairs and downstairs. She often has it playing quietly overnight, the radio light glowing on the nightstand while she sleeps.
Oh that’s nice. We appreciate you and your mother tuning in and thank you for sharing that.
I support WRCJ and now I listen to the station at work all day long. It provides me with a relaxing and yet invigorating environment. Who wouldn’t want to support this wonderful station that keeps classical and jazz; both worldwide and national, alive! Thank you WRCJ!
Thank you Cynthia, that’s so nice! We are grateful for your support.
I have a Logitech Smart Radio (Internet). It can not locate the link as posted.
Do you have a solution for me?
I’m guessing most of these internet radio devices use TuneIn?
