    I love all NPR stations but especially our local affiliate TPR. I had the chance to volunteer at their headquarters during their fall pledge drive. All the staff was nice and engaging. We were trained on how to answer the phones and fill out the pledge forms. The callers were very friendly and encouraging. It was a nice experience to help out. As a listener, I greatly appreciate how they cover the local and regional news with care. They are unbiased and go beyond to research their topics and invite special guests to offer additional insight. I became a member during their spring fund drive and am grateful to have them as a reliable new source.

    TPR: Worth Repeating! 7 Storytellers telling 7 minute stories for 7 bucks ! 7 is a lucky number!

    There's two buildings that look exactly the same, so make sure you are at the correct address (as located on the top of the building facing Datapoint).

    I love when people are passionate about anything, particularly when it comes music. And all the…read moreparties involved with the Trinity University Radio Station at KRTU 91.7 FM are just that. From their involvement in JazzAlive, the Rooftop Concert Series to their awesome jazz radio show that runs from morning, noon and night they communicate why jazz is still a vibrant and relevant artform. Whenever I listen to their Morning Session to the Jazz in the Afternoon I picture dudes with milk crates of vinyl cramming them into a small Volvo Station Wagon and heading toward the radio station. The wealth of the knowledge of all dj's, who do all the shows is infinitesimal. The gamut runs from traditional, big band, zydeco, dixieland, avant-garde, acid jazz and all points between. Which includes standards by Coltrane, Parker, Porter, Thelonius Monk, Getz, Jobim etc. But for me the enjoyment comes from when they reach into the deep cuts, whenever they play music from artists that I've never heard of before. I typically keep a notepad next to me so I can jot down the names of a cool song or an artist. Above all what I appreciate is hearing the dj's provide a historical context for some songs or artists. Which provides me an invaluable insight into the mindset or an individual's vision. KRTU 91.7 FM is passionate about jazz, therefore it is successful in sharing that passion with the rest of the city. If you're tired of the other radio stations that play the same song a million times in one hour, this station is a refreshing escape from that. More importantly if you love hearing jazz in a live setting check out the various events they post, sponsor and support. John Coltrane composed " A Love Supreme ", to convey his love for jazz as an art form. KRTU seems to be an aural representation of that.

    Jazz Hands for KRTU! Wow! Such a great jazz station! The…read morebest in town. This is actually the Trinity University radio station. Since it's a college station, they don't have to play nearly as many ads as the other stations do, and they have much greater control of the kinds of tunes that they play. They play a variety of jazz throughout the day. Nothing ever too crazy. In fact, this is the only station we all can agree on at work. They don't play the same ol' stuff day in and day out. If you tune in on the weekends or late night, they often deviate from the jazz, and play some of the students' favorite songs. It's a great station to find out what kinds of jazz-related events are going on around town. Turn in, turn on!
