History

Radio Tirana Klasik was launched at the innitiative of former RTSH director Thoma Gëllçi, with the aim of promoting both Albanian and world classical music. Its initial programming was overseen by journalist Mimoza Kosturi and included material by Albanian and internationally renowned composers.

Before its launch, the 101.2 FM frequency was occupied by Boom Boom Radio, a local music station with a contemporary format.
