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.

Classical Music Amarillo presents BRASS!

Tune in to Classical Music Amarillo this week for a program featuring brass instruments!

On Saturday, November 11th, Chamber Music Amarillo will present a brass quintet program celebrating our nation's veterans. At that event, a brass quintet featuring William Takacs and David Lough on Trumpet, Guli Manfredi on Horn, John Shanks on trombone, and Jeremy Lewis on Tuba will perform music by Johann Sebastian Bach, Michael Kamen, Kerry Turner, Eric Ewazen, Kevin McKee, Aaron Copland, and George M. Cohan at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Amarillo.

Tune in to Classical Music Amarillo this week to hear two of the quintet performers — John Shanks and Jeremy Lewis — play solos accompanied by the WT Symphonic Band, as well as excerpts from the Freedom Brass Quintet’s February 2019 performance at West Texas A&M University. On this week's episode, you can look forward to hearing music by Kevin McKee, Oskar Boehme, Enrique Crespo, Kevin Day, Johann Sebastian Bach, Leo Delibes, Stephen Verhelst, and Anthony Barfield!

HPPR's new host for Classical Music Amarillo, Dr. Kimberly Hieb, brings her rich knowledge of music history to our regional classical music program.
