CBC Music, Canadian radio station and streaming music website
CBC Music is a radio station and online streaming service in Ontario that broadcasts music across many genres, from classical to pop and folk. It is operated by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and offers live performances, musician interviews, and specialized programs devoted to different musical styles.
The station was founded in 1946 and was originally called CBC FM, then CBC Stereo and CBC Radio 2. In 2018, it was renamed CBC Music to better reflect its online presence and focus on all music genres, not just classical and jazz.
CBC Music draws its name from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that operates it. The station maintains a presence in communities and cultural events, connecting people through shared musical interests and local stories.
The station is available via FM radio in many of Ontario's cities and provincial capitals, and online streaming is possible anywhere in Canada. Access to streaming is available through the CBC Music website or mobile apps and is straightforward to navigate.
The station organizes the CBC Music Festival every spring at Ontario Place with performers from different countries and genres. It also runs a competition called Searchlight that discovers new Canadian musicians and gives them opportunities to perform at major festivals.
