For those of you who are interested in listening to organ music from
your computers, cell phones or tablets, here are a few suggestions.
Do
you love theater organ? Try the Theater Organ Radio Station. Scroll
down to the blue SHOUTcast button toward the bottom of the screen and
enjoy.

For
"classical" organ music, try the OrganLive site. Click on the NOW
PLAYING button on the top of their page and then select one of the
player options. You may already have one of them installed on your
system. I use WinAmp. I also suggest right-clicking and opening the
player in a new window so you can keep the NOW PLAYING window open.
That way you can refresh the screen to see and research what's currently
playing. Notice that you can research the organ, the organist and in
many cases you can see or purchase the CD and even the sheet music of
the piece that is currently being played. This is one of my favorite
sites. They also take requests and you can read user comments about
some of the works.

For everything else, try tunein. You can also get tunein as an app for your phone or tablet.
