Take a moment for music.
We're all in need of a musical oasis these days. Whether you yearn for a break from the chaos of the world, or you just want something to keep you company while you work from home, we have just the thing: HPR-2, the state's only dedicated classical music station. Whether you're an accomplished musician yourself, or just "classical curious," we've got plenty to inspire you and enrich your day.

Some of HPR-2's classical music hosts: Ian Capps, Gene Schiller, Louise Kealiʻiloma Lanizlotti, Judy Anderson, Craig DeSilva, John Zak. (archive photo)
Much of the programming on HPR-2 is hosted locally by our own team, who expertly curate music from the islands and around the world. Consider them your personal music concierges, guiding you through the very best of classical music through their programs:
•Morning Café/Morning Concert begins each weekday morning with a refreshing blend of music, followed by a selection of longer works. Hosted by Gene Schiller. (Weekdays 8 am-noon)
•Classical Pacific presents classical music from pre-Renaissance to the current day, curated from a Pacific perspective by Keali‘iloma (Louise King Lanzilotti). (Weekdays 3-6 pm)
•Evening Concert gives listeners a chance to unwind through the pau hana hours. Hosted by John Zak and Craig DeSilva. (Airs weekdays 6-8 pm)
•Howard's Day Off is a sampler of music (including some non-classical), usually centered around a selected theme. Hosted by Howard Dicus. (Saturdays 5-7 am and Sundays 5-7 pm)
•Singing And Other Sins celebrates the musical form known as the art song. Hosted by Gary Hickling. (Saturdays 5-6 pm)
