Do you think we (the fans) could get "Adventures in Good Music " reruns back on the radio? The programs are timeless. I miss Karl too. If anyone has a way to contact the people with authority to do this, please let me know how to contact them. You can write to me on my youtube site.

I learned to love classical music listening to Karl's Adventures in Good Music on Armed Forces Radio and later on WGMS in Washington, D.C. There must be perhaps a few thousand of his programs lying somewhere. Is there any possibility that someone will make them available once again. I would certainly pay for them. I taped several of them off the air and listen to them from time to time.

I worked @ WJR in Detroit as a mail clerk in the early 60's and I remember watching Karl do "LIVE" and I mean live, his show, including playing theme song on the Baldwin . A great man never to busy to talk to the mail boy and exchange jokes.... Helen Riggelhoff, his Secretary and Sandra Sussman the gal that help pull records (33 1/3...remember them?) He was organist at the Temple in Detroit and influenced me towards a career in the music business

I could never have survived living in rural Indiana for a year without this man on the radio. He and the Prairie Home Companion were my only friends.

Now you can get satellite radio, not to mention youtube. I'm listening to a Japanese saxophonist playing with Chick Corea, a crazy Japanese pianist who reminds me of Angelica from Rugrats. watch?v=ZoGtLq9Qx24

We argue about the war on message boards where the enemy also posts, imagine Japanese or Germans posting on message boards during WW2.

God I miss listening to Karl. I always looked forward to listening to Adventures in Good music. I've always love classical music, but Karl made my love for music even stronger. Karl will always be missed!

According to the wiki page, the Hass family is looking to see how they can made all of the archived shows available to the public. I hope they do.

I listened to Karl Haas on WQXR (radio station of the New York Times) for many years when I lived in New Jersey. His lifelong love of music always drew me to a greater appreciation and understanding of the great composers throughout history. The opening of his show featured the Adagio from the "Sonata Pathetique" op. 13 by Beethoven. To me it was unforgettable to hear him play this music and allow the theme to soar aloft from the depths of his being. He was one of the best musicologists ever

I'm so sorry that I didn't tape these shows from the radio. I had hoped to find some audio recordings and, so far, haven't had any luck. Thank you, Mr. Haas, for sharing your love of music with all of us. You are sorely missed.

I love Karl Haas. I made some tapes and they are two feet from me. I used to tape heaps of his tracks because they were usually LP and the best music/performers. Mind you I had more but I think I lost them. I also have his book.
