Although I am awash in a sea of music to listen to, I've just run across a new, streamable show on WQXR:
The New Canon on Q2 is a weekly roundup and discussion of new and noteworthy New Music releases, both commercial and independent. The New Canon offers listeners an in-depth exploration of the most vibrant classical music being written and recorded today, with an ear toward discovering, sharing and shaping our 21st-century canon.
Hosted by Olivia Giovetti
Since I feel like I've spent much of my life sorting through the potential 20th century canon, this may be a good way to listen to truly contemporary music. The first show has works by Caleb Burhans and Todd Reynolds, among others.
