Classical music on KGSU Local art will don Braithwaite walls keeps ears tuned in BY DAWN DE BUSK KGSU-Fthe campus radio station, once had an entirely classical format but switched to a pop chart format about five years ago. Now, only Saturdays are dedicated to classical music including the airing of opera from the Opera Radio Network. Dave Brown, a communication major, has a four-homorning shift at KGSU and according to him, quite a following of listeners Brown took the shift which was part of the requirement tor COMM 356L because it was a convenient. He starts at 10 a m playmg classical albums. Then, around 11.30, the recording from New York is aired, often beginning with a dialogue by Peter Allen. The relaxing music is often tagged as "great to do your homemwork to" by other radio students, according to Brown. He says, part of the advantage is the program's following "I always get one call per shift," Brown says. "One time a girl called me up and asked for a rock song She said, 'That's classical music." Most of the listeners who respond are faculty. Brown says "But that shows support of the radio station on the part of the faculty," he says "Professor Donovan will come up to me where work at the post office and if had a hard time pronouncing a certain word on the air, he will say it for me," Brown adds. "I think most of the listeners are outside in the community and not college students," he says. Brown says he must communicate with listeners that the schedules for the season's opera show is New York time. "The schedules say the program stalls at 2 p.m , but in the West it starts at noon," he says. "I try to remind the listeners of that and inform them of what is coming up."
