Radio 2 Day

Classic FM broadcasts nationally on FM and digital radio and is available internationally by streaming audio over the Internet.

As well as playing older music, the station plays several modern film scores.

Its presenters include Nick Bailey, Simon Bates, John Brunning, Katie Derham, soprano Lesley Garrett, pianist Myleene Klass, Mark Forrest, Margherita Taylor, David Mellor and Natalie Wheen. Past presenters include Stephen Fry, Paul Gambaccini and Mike Read.

Classic FM is known for its annual "Hall of Fame", comprising the 300 most popular pieces voted for by the listeners. The Number 1 spot was occupied consistently for many years by Max Bruch's Violin Concerto No. 1. However, more recently Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 and Mozart's Clarinet Concerto have taken first place. In 2007 and 2008, the top spot on the Hall of Fame was "The Lark Ascending" by Ralph Vaughan Williams.
