You can help keep Encore on the air:
Encore is a one-man operation. WRMI and Channel 292 are very generous with their air-time but Encore still costs around 200 Dollars/Euros a month to broadcast.
If you can - send a small contribution to help Encore keep going.
There is a PayPal donation button on the homepage of the website - www.tumbril.co.uk - which folks can use if they want to. If PayPal is no good for you then send me an email and we'll sort something else out.
Thank you.

A big thanks to the folks who have donated already.

This week's Programme - First broadcast this coming Saturday on Channel 292 - starts with some of Beethoven's last major composition - the String Quartet No. 16. It is followed by Finnish composer Kimmo Hakola - his Clarinet Concerto, and then a cello sonata from one of J S Bach's children - C P E Bach. After that - the Monteverdi Choir will sing John Tavener's Dum Transisset Sabbatum. The programme ends with the Flute Sonata in D Major by Joseph Bodin De Boismortier.

Channel 292 can be pulled live off the internet if the reception is poor in your location. Easy to find their site with a google search.
