jazz. As the only classical and jazz music station in the Western Cape, Fine

Jennings said: “We’re thrilled to be on DStv. It really opens up the airways
for more people to experience the magic of music that brings calm in chaos and
restores the human spirit.”
Fine Music Radio is committed to delivering
the very best listening experience from outside broadcasts, compelling content
and social initiatives. The classical music selection is melodic and
