Discover something wonderful each weekday with Karl Haas

9am Weekdays on 3MBS 103.5FM
Each weekday, listeners to 180 stations in the United States, and to a network of stations via the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia, tune in to radio's most widely listened-to classical music program: Karl Haas' Adventures in Good Music.

The program began in 1959 on WJR, Detroit, going national through WCLV/Seaway Productions in 1970. Although Karl died on February 6, 2005, his programs, which are his legacy, will continue to be made available to the listeners of the stations that carry him.

In 1991, Karl received the National Endowment for the Humanities' Charles Frankel Award, which was presented to him by the first President Bush at a ceremony at the White House. He won the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award twice and was named to the Radio Hall of Fame in Chicago--the first classical broadcaster, and so far the only one, to be so honored.

In addition to his daily broadcasts, Haas wrote a book, Inside Music, which is now in its 10th printing, and he recorded three best selling compact discs based on his programs.

Adventures in Good Music can be heard on 3MBS 103.5 weekdays at 9am. Click on the link above right to access the archived Karl Haas programs.
