| All of your favourite ABC Classic presenters are back on Monday 24 January for a year of celebrations marking the ABC's 90th birthday. This year we're bringing you a host of special events, live broadcasts, online projects, and initiatives for Australian music makers, emerging and established.
Don't miss Classic 90 for 90, which will re-live the great classical concerts broadcast by the ABC. Kicking off at 8pm on Monday, hear the oldest live recording in the archives of great American conductor Eugene Ormandy with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, as part of his 1944 tour to boost the morale of Allied troops in Australia during World War II. Every week we'll bring you two concerts celebrating the incredible history of classical music at the ABC over the past 90 years.
