We're excited to announce that award winning broadcaster David Prever has joined the Magic Classical family to host Saturday and Sunday afternoons between 2pm - 6pm, part of our Calming Classics Weekends.

We had a quick chat with David who said: "I'm delighted to be be part of Magic Classical. Playing the music that I love, on a weekend afternoon, for an audience who feels the same way, is about as good as it gets.”

David joins our newly relaunched Calming Classics Weekend featuring a line-up of Jack Pepper on Weekend Breakfast, award winning musician Ayanna Witter Johnson on Saturday daytime and Sonali Shah on Sunday daytime. Darren Redick and Fran Godfrey host Saturday and Sunday evenings respectively.
