Introducing Magical Classical: The Perfect Gateway to Beautiful Music
Elevate your station’s sound. Captivate a discerning audience. Redefine easy listening.
Broadcast East is proud to present a brand-new programme for 2026: Magical Classical. Born from direct demand, we were asked to create a light classical show that captures the essence of accessible, beautiful music—modeled on the appeal of Classic FM but designed uniquely for your station.
Why Magical Classical?
In a landscape often dominated by pop hits and gold classics, there is a vibrant, underserved audience craving sophistication and variety. Magical Classical is your key to unlocking it. This two-hour weekly journey is crafted for stations who desire more—more depth, more elegance, more musical colour. It’s the perfect programming choice to broaden your appeal, enhance your brand prestige, and provide stunning, intelligent content that stands apart.
Your Guide to a World of Sound
Hosted by the trusted and warm voice of Richard J Hannah, the show is a curated exploration of classical music’s most beautiful and engaging pieces. Richard expertly guides listeners through the stories behind the music, making it approachable, enlightening, and deeply enjoyable.
A Signature Feature: The Old Curiosity Shop
Each episode includes our unique signature segment, "The Old Curiosity Shop." This feature delights in the magic of crossover music—those fascinating pieces that beautifully blur the lines between pop and classical genres. It’s a talking point that surprises and delights both classical newcomers and aficionados alike.
