The biggest musical serendipity of my life - thank you, WCRB, I never knew you were this great when I listened to your regular broadcast! I begin many days with this station, and sometimes, it is the only thing I listen to all day. Go, WCR-Bach!

Found your station during my three year stint in Boston, and was delighted to learn it could also be heard via internet. Over the decade it never occurred to me to leave a review, but here it is: superb. The DJs offer just enough info to intrigue the listener. About the selections, they are all JS Bach; what more is to be said!?

I've probably listened to each episode 100x now over the past 5+ years and I never tire of the music or the performances. It's a great way to listen to Bach while working at my computer, or just used as background music. Wish there were new shows being made. UPDATE: Thank you for the new episodes! =OD

Heart warming music. It is spirit lifting and soothing to the soul. I listen to Bach everyday! Very educational. Edwin Rivera, NYC.

Found your channel yesterday, and it's absolutely great. Right now the Boston Symphony is playing the Chaconne, how more on target can you get?
