WABE FM 90.1 is a
radio station in
Atlanta, Georgia, that is
affiliated with
National Public Radio (NPR) and
Public Radio International (PRI). WABE's
format features mostly
classical music, although the station will occasionally play a
Beatles tune, a Broadway show tune, a film suite, or a selection from a film such as
Star Wars, as long as the piece is in a classical-sounding arrangement. WABE-FM has lately added the short feature
Atlanta Sounds (broadcast several times a day) and twice weekly previews of weekend events around the city. Beginning in 2009, its Sunday schedule changed from devoting equal time to news programs and classical music to broadcasting news programs during the daytime and playing classical music on Sunday evenings. It carries the NPR flagship programs
Morning Edition and
All Things Considered, with
newscasts interjected periodically.
