CBC Music is the English-language music network of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Canada’s national public broadcaster. It carries a broad mix of classical, jazz, pop and singer-songwriter programming with a strong emphasis on Canadian artists.
History
The network descends from the CBC’s second English radio service, which operated for decades under names including CBC Stereo and CBC Radio 2. CBC Music began in 2012 as a digital music brand encompassing web streams and online content, and in 2018 the corporation renamed the Radio 2 broadcast network itself CBC Music, unifying its over-the-air and digital music services under one identity. Through these changes the service has retained its role as the CBC’s home for music, complementing the news and talk oriented CBC Radio One.
Format and programming
CBC Music’s schedule blends genres across the day, with classical programming prominent in daytime hours and contemporary, jazz, and specialty shows elsewhere in the schedule. The network showcases Canadian musicians extensively, records and broadcasts live performances, and produces franchises such as searchable digital playlists and the CBC Music Festival. Its programming mandate reflects the CBC’s public-service obligations to promote Canadian culture and artists.
Reach
The network broadcasts on FM transmitters in cities across Canada, including 94.1 FM in Toronto, and streams nationally and internationally through the CBC Listen platform and its website, where it also operates additional genre-based digital streams.
Significance
As the music arm of Canada’s public broadcaster, CBC Music is a major institutional supporter of the country’s music scene. It provides national exposure for Canadian classical ensembles, jazz players and popular artists alike, and serves as one of the few full-service music networks with a specific cultural mandate in North America.
