| | | Creator: | WCLV Radio Station | | | Dates: | 1962-1973 | | | Abstract: | WCLV is a Cleveland, Ohio, radio station that was founded as WDGO in 1961 by Douglas G. Oviatt. C.K. Patrick and Robert Conrad purchased the station just one year later and changed the call letters to WCLV. Focusing primarily on broadcasting classical music, the station hosted such programs as Symphony at Seven and Heinen's Concert Hall, as well as live broadcasts of Sunday afternoon performances of the Cleveland Orchestra. WCLV incorporated progressive rock music into the programming in 1966. In 2001 the station changed its frequency from 95.5 to 104.9 FM and simultaneously became part of the WCLV Foundation, a nonprofit that donates a portion of radio station proceeds to the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Cleveland Orchestra, and other organizations. The collection consists of record album advertisements, awards given to the station, birthday cards, brochures, collage pieces, concert advertisements, concert program notes, correspondence, documentation of changes in station ownership, letters, magazine articles, newspaper clippings, pamphlets, photographs, press releases, sponsored concerts, and telegrams pertaining in some way to WCLV, music in Cleveland, and/or affiliates of the station. | | | Call #: | MS 5076 | | | Extent: | 1.10 linear feet (2 oversize volumes) | | | Subjects: | WCLV (Radio station : Cleveland, Ohio) | WCLV Foundation (Cleveland, Ohio) | Radio stations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Concerts -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Music -- Ohio -- Cleveland.
