Radio Requests
Hoping to capitalize on research the IAWM's scholars have been compiling for years, the Advocacy Committee has launched a campaign of asking people to request that their local and Internet radio stations play a particular work by a woman composer each week.
We request works by a mix of historical and contemporary composers. Weekly selections are listed below.
In 2005, IAWM named radio stations KMFA, KWAX, and WMFE Honored Broadcasters for their outstanding commitment to broadcasts of women's compositions. Download PDF press release here.
How you can help
Visitors to this site are encouraged to help! Just:
- Consult this web page for the Radio Request for this week.
- Request, by telephone or email, that your radio station(s) broadcast that work. Download a sample request here.
- Suggest, if the station does not own a recording of it, that it consult this web page and substitute the work of another female composer.
For information about works by living composers, please click on Members' Pages.
For information about works by women throughout history, radio personnel may click on Resources.
Thank you!

How to Send Music to Friendly Radio Stations
We urge composers and others to mail CDs to the "friendly" radio stations listed below. "Friendly" stations are those inclined to broadcast recordings of compositions by women.
ABC Classic FM (Australia). The contact people are Julian Day, day.julian@abc.net.au, and Stephen Adams, adams.stephen@abc.net.au.
Berklee Internet Radio Network (BIRN). Lisa Marie Garver seeks "all varieties of choral music," preferably a cappella. At the website, www.thebirn.com, click on "contact us," download a legal document, sign it, and send it with your CDs.
CKWR. Tom Quick hosts two programs of Women in Music per month on FM 98.5 CKWR, in Waterloo, Ontario (Canada). He also hosts Irish Horizons and includes "a lot of women" in that show, which consists mostly of Celtic music. He is interested in settings of Irish poetry, Celtic folk songs, Irish-born composers, Irish performers, and Irish-American music--and especially Canadian content. The station can be heard over the Internet at www.ckwr.com. For further information, please contact Tom Quick directly at quickmusic@sgci.com
COAST TO COAST AM. Composers and performers interested in having excerpts of their work played as "bumper music" on Coast to Coast AM--a commercial radio program carried by "more than 500 stations in the U.S., as well as Canada, Mexico and Guam" and "heard by nearly three million weekly listeners"-- may want to see http://www.coasttocoastam.com/article/new-music-sundays. The first Sunday of every month, Coast to Coast AM has begun playing short clips of new music as transitions between program segments.
KALX (http://kalx.berkeley.edu/kalxfaq.htm). Information about submitting music is at http://kalx.berkeley.edu/submit_music.htm. Music directors Lindsay Melnyk and Brittney Stanley can be reached at music@kalx.berkeley.edu ("Do NOT email MP3's or other attachments!"). The mailing address is KALX / Attention: Music Director / University of California / 26 Barrows Hall #5650 / Berkeley, CA 94720-5650 (U.S.A.).
KDFC in San Francisco, California (USA) (online at www.kdfc.com). CDs may be sent to Rik Malone, Music Director, Classical 102.1 KDFC, 201 Third Street, Suite 1200, San Francisco, CA 94103. Please note that Rik reports that "we try to stay as tonal and melodic as possible in our playlist."
KGNU-FM. Timm Lenk, Music Director, KGNU-FM, 4700 Walnut St. Boulder CO 80301, U.S.A. The website is www.kgnu.org.
KLCC. Nanci LaVelle, who hosts "Sisters," would be happy to receive CDs from performers as well as composers, and the music need not be classical. The address is: 136 W. Eighth Ave. / Eugene, OR 97401 USA. Her e-mail address is lavellen@comcast.net. The Web address is http://www.klcc.org. Also, Frank Gosar, folk music host, says, "I've always tried for a balance of male and female voices and performances on my radio show. I'm certainly willing to hear more quality music by women songwriters and performers." His e-mail address is fgosar@efn.org. Send CDs to Frank Gosar, "The Saturday Café," at KLCC, 4000 E. 30th Ave., Eugene, OR 97405.
KMFA was named one of the IAWM's Honored Broadcasters for its commitment to broadcasting music written by women. Also at KMFA, IAWM member Kathryn Mishell produces and hosts "Into the Light," which broadcasts women's compositions over the airwaves and the Internet (http://www.kmfa.org/listen_index.htm). Contact KMFA: 3001 N. Lamar #100, Austin, TX, USA. Kathryn Mishell reports that Into the Light on KMFA (http://www.kmfa.org/index.htm) marked its tenth anniversary on Sun., Jan. 3, 2010, began a five-month hiatus while a new program director makes changes and then brings the show back for a trial thirteen weeks. "Keep sending me your music!" writes Kathryn. "If you are among those who stream the program, perhaps you can add your voice in protest to its discontinuation and/or the hope for its eventual reinstatement."
KMUD plays "anything but hard rock." Broadcasts are streamed on the Internet and archived. Go to www.KMUD.org to see which programs are appropriate for your vinyl records and CDs. Contact IAWM member Marian Mapes-Bouck, who hosts "Klassics for KMUD: From Bach to Bouck," at MD@KMUD.org, or other program hosts through the Website.
KTRU, affiliated with Rice University in Houston, TX (USA), produces "Scordatura," which is dedicated to new music, avant-garde music, electroacoustic music, soundscape, and anything unusual. The station broadcasts seven hours of new music (many different kinds) each week. They also interview composers and performers of contemporary music on the show. The Web page is http://www.ktru.org/ (there's a "Listen Now" button). Composers and performers may send CDs and contact information to: Scordatura Show/KTRU-FM/Ley Student Center/Rice University/6100 Main St./Houston, TX 77005, USA.
