Classical Hosts Jazz Hosts

Dave Wagner

Dave Wagner 6- 10a.m. weekdays

Probably best known as the Detroit area's beloved classical music connoisseur, Dr. David Wagner has earned an international reputation as musician, teacher, expert and author. Wagner, whose vast music knowledge and wry sense of humor are familiar to classical music fans from his 17 years at WQRS-FM in Detroit, is now program director and music host for 90.9 FM. Upon reflection of his most recent career move, Dr. Wagner said 'I have been involved in many endeavors over the years. WRCJ is, by far, the most exciting. I am a product of Detroit Public Schools myself, and to be given the opportunity to work with the schools in such a profound way is thrilling. We're going to do great things for the community and for Detroit Public Schools.' Dave's blog on all things relating to the Pipe Organ (Diapason Dave) can be found HERE, and his writing was recently profiled by the Detroit Free Press (check the sidebar)

Chris Felcyn
Chris Felcyn 10a.m.- 3p.m. weekdays
As the long-running host of The Listening Room® on public radio, Chris Felcyn engaged listeners with his eclectic choice of music and his casual, but always informative, comments on the music. While always on the lookout for the unusual (such as Rufus Harley, jazz bagpipist) Felcyn is a serious music lover who believes that music is best presented on the radio accompanied by insight and context, often allowing listeners to hear even familiar works in a new light. For a tasty treat, listen for the 'Midday Entreé' where Chris serves up a musical selection accompanied by a special recipe. Chris' blog on the Well-Tempered Wireless can be found HERE.

Jim Lowlor
Jim Lowlor   3 - 7 p.m. weekdays
When Jim Lowlor was pursuing majors in music and mass communications at Wayne State University in the 1960's, he envisioned a broadcast career sharing his passion for classical music with an appreciative audience. And that did happen on WDET-FM, where Jim presided over his long-running program, Aubade. But eventually, his talent for journalism took him elsewhere. Now Jim has returned to his first love - presenting classical music on the radio - as interim host of our afternoon show. Jim serves as executive producer for the DSO national broadcasts. 'This really is a dream come true,' said Jim, 'because classical music is where my heart is and I love connecting with WRCJ listeners.'
