Classics By Request’s annual kids-only show features picks from WPR’s youngest listeners

On Saturday, Nov. 29, join host Ruthanne Bessman for the annual kids-only “Classics by Request” show on WPR! School-age listeners are invited to choose a favorite piece of classical music and submit their request at wpr.org/shows/classics-request. Every young listener who participates will receive a small gift as a thank-you.

This special tradition is a fun way for kids to share the music they love — and there’s nothing quite like the excitement of hearing your request played live on WPR.

Tune in from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday Nov. 29 on-air, online or on the WPR app!
