The last transmission with WWCR will be Saturday 29th February 21:00 UTC.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The European broadcasts are of much lower power &#8211; and, naturally, much less costly. Radio\u00a0Tumbril will continue on Channel 292 for the foreseeable future.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In the meantime &#8211; many thanks to everyone in The US, Canada, and beyond (India for instance) who have been listening regularly and enthusiastically to the broadcasts of Encore from WBCQ and WWCR. I&#8217;m very sorry they have to come to an end.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>But not quite yet&#8230;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>So do let us know how well you can pick up Encore at your location by emailing to\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">encoretumbril@gmail.com<\/a>. We try to reply to all emails and will send eQSL cards for full reports &#8211; though a brief report is fine.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>This week&#8217;s programme\u00a0<\/b>will\u00a0start with a Spanish dance by Sarasate and a couple of Bagatelles by Gerald Finzi. Then a couple of songs &#8211; one by Puccini and the other by Mahler. A contemporary piece next &#8211; To the pale Green Sea of Evening \u00a0by Jennifer Barker, and a piano piece by Alkan to follow. The show finishes with some of a sonata by Beethoven &#8211; Richter on Piano and Rostropovich on Cello. The Adagietto from Mahler&#8217;s 5th to finish us off.<\/div>\n<div>The playlist is on the website and will be updated soon after Saturday&#8217;s broadcast of the new show by Channel 292 at 11:00 UTC &#8211; but probably not until Sunday evening.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Both Channel 292 and WBCQ as well as WWCR can be pulled live off the internet if the reception is poor in your location.
