“Feminine Fusion” is a weekly radio program that highlights the influence of women in classical music. These are the women throughout history and into the present day who create, perform, and inspire. Composer/announcer Diane Jones of WCNY-FM in Syracuse, NY is your host, and every week showcases some of these remarkable women.
Diane Jones is a free-lance composer of chamber and solo music, based in Central New York. She is also an active performer, as a member of Samba Laranja and the Central New York Flute Choir. Diane is the mid-day host on WCNY-FM.
