Both of those things have led us to discover fascinating fresh takes on the standard classical repertoire, which we are happy to share with you. I\u2019ve been helping listeners start their day as All Classical Radio\u2019s morning host since 2018, and on <em>Happy Hour<\/em>, I enjoy sharing a fun soundtrack to wrap up the week and kick off the weekend.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:40%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/acp-website.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2020\/08\/host-christa-wessel.jpg\" alt=\"woman with glasses sitting on a blue couch, leaning slightly forward\" class=\"wp-image-89653\" style=\"width:400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acp-website.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2020\/08\/host-christa-wessel.jpg 400w, https:\/\/acp-website.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2020\/08\/host-christa-wessel-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/acp-website.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2020\/08\/host-christa-wessel-233x350.jpg 233w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:60%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading text-3xl\">Christa Wessel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"text-2xl\">One of my favorite things about All Classical Radio is the diverse array of music and programming. <em>Friday Happy Hour <\/em>is a perfect example of what the station does best: sharing handcrafted playlists and programs you&#8217;ll hear nowhere else.
