Klara is a Belgian radio station operated by the Flemish public broadcaster Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroep (VRT). Its output is primarily focussed on classical music, but also includes jazz and world music.[1]

The name is derived from Klassieke Radio, which translates as "Classical Radio".[2]

History

[edit]

Klara was launched on 2 December 2000 as successor to VRT Radio 3. The change of name marked the introduction of a new programming style aimed at broadening the appeal of VRT's classical music channel.[3]
