The Concertzender is a volunteer organization based in Utrecht. Since 1982 we have been making radio programs that are distributed nationally via cable and the Internet. The Concertzender broadcasts many music genres. For example, think of:

• lots of authentic jazz, throughout all style periods;
• thematic programs with well-known and less known classical composers;
• ample attention to medieval, renaissance and baroque music;
• historical recordings;
• music from all over the world, from ethnic field recordings to global dance sounds;
• electro-acoustic, improvisational, pop and folk music.

In addition, the Concertzender is building a rich archive of its own music recordings.

Job description:

• You and the presenter are responsible for the broadcast of an evening.
