WCNY-FM Classic-FM is located in Syracuse, New York. WCNY-FM is a National Public Radio member station. In 1985, WUNY-FM was added to broadcast to Utica and the Mohawk Valley. In 1986, classical music came to the North Country, when WJNY-FM signed-on in Watertown. With the addition of Utica and finally Watertown, the umbrella name of CLASSIC FM was adopted, and so it is today. One of the tenets of CLASSIC FM service is to broadcast performances by local performing arts organizations. This service starts with Central New York’s own Syracuse Symphony Orchestra. CLASSIC FM is pleased to offer SSO performances on Monday at 8pm and then repeat the program on the next Sunday at noon, with the help and support of Michael Roberts Associates. WCNY-FM also presents performances from Civic Morning Musicals, the Skaneateles Chamber Music Festival, Cooperstown and Chenango Music Fests, and the many other series, groups, and individual artists.
