Too Cool
MusicMatch Radio has added a classical music category. But unlike most of the other streaming services, they further break it down by period. At the moment, I'm sitting at work plugging away to Baroque. It's quite nice -- and free. I'm not sure what extras one gets by subscribing, but I may have to investigate.
And yeah, I'm an alt-country-listening, football-worshipping Texan backpacker who loves Baroque music.
Deal.
(Update) The selection is a bit limited, but it's still a nice change of pace.

You should check out Houston Early Music. They have good baroque concerts.
(I like Baroque music too.)

I will! I've heard of them but never looked into it.
Isn't there also a Bach group? Maybe affiliated with some church? I think I used to see stuff from them occasionally, but I'm drawing a blank at the moment.

I think so. There are actually several ensembles locally that do some form of early music, but HEM is the one I know the most about.

Yay! Kevin can FINALLY listen to his favorite artist again -- Lukas Foss!
