Seattle Opera is thrilled to welcome 98.1 Classical KING FM as a new resident of The Opera Center at Seattle Center. At 11:01 pm on Friday, February 21, 2020 KING FM listeners heard the first notes of Beethoven’s, Consecration of the House Overture announced by KING FM host Ted Askew. This marked the very first broadcast from the listener-supported radio station’s new home on the second floor of the Opera Center.
