Kelly Rinne - I am the Music Director, host and self-proclaimed geekette, primarily on Classical Music Broadcast.com
You may also find me as a fill-in host on local FM radio in and around the Metro Detroit area. I host all types of classical, but LOVE opera - its better than any reality TV show.Take your shoes off, pull up a beanbag chair, and give classical music a listen.

   * If you really want to know...I have 2 degrees
   * one in Fine Art/Art History
   * the second in Opera. I was an opera designer for 16 years
   * then I went into web development. (oh there's a LONG story there)

Wanting to not completely give up opera I started Classical Music Broadcast.com in 2005.
We broadcast intermittently until 2 years ago when the station went 24/7. Thanks to all the listeners who have stuck with us through our growing pains!

I am a Voice123.com voice actor
