Wende Persons, whom we knew in another century when she worked for DG, has got a new gig running a classical strand on a group on some 40 public radio stations, known as the Station Resource Group.

Wende will be in charge of Classical Music Rising (CMR), an initiative that reaches out to what is perceived as a potential growth audience.

CMR has won a $400,000 Mellon Foundation grant, plus $100,000 from five participating stations, including WQXR (New York) and KUSC (LA).
