KJJP-FM 105.7 is currently operating at 15% of power, limiting its signal strength and range in the Amarillo-Canyon area. This due to complicated problems with its very old transmitter. Local engineers are continuing to work on the transmitter and are consulting with the manufacturer to diagnose and fix the problems. We apologize for this disruption and service as we work as quickly as possible to restore KJPFM to full power. In the mean time you can always stream either the HPPR Mix service or HPPR Connect service using the player above or the HPPR app.

Tune in to Classical Music Amarillo this week for a sneak peek at music presented on an album recently released by the Elicio Winds, featuring Virginia Broffitt Kunzer on flute, Kathleen Carter Bell on oboe, and Conor Bell on bassoon!

This week Classical Music Amarillo is pleased to present excerpts from a recent album released by the Elicio Winds, a chamber ensemble featuring West Texas A&M University's new bassoon professor, Conor Bell, alongside Virginia Broffitt Kunzer on flute and Kathleen Carter Bell on oboe. The album is titled Convergence: Music & Cultural Legacy and features all-new compositions designed for the trio's unique instrumentation. Each composition on the album was commissioned by the trio and resonates with the landscape, culture, and history of their home state of Alabama. (You can read about the background of each composition and its American composer on the group's website.)
