On Air Hosts
Adam Eccleston
I was born in Brooklyn, New York in a bustling area near Coney Island. At nine years old, my family moved to Bad Kreuznach, Germany – walking distance to the most luscious vineyards and home to bridge houses (homes built on the sides of bridges flowing through the beautiful Nahe River). There, I started my musical journey on the flute at the Hochschule fur Musik in Frankfurt, later studying with Sir James Galway, William Bennett, and Paula Robison. I have performed under conductors Valery Gergiev and Hugh Wolf, as well as a featured soloist at Carnegie Hall, Casino Kursaal in Switzerland, and with several orchestras. I regularly perform with ensembles throughout the Portland Metro area.
In 2015, I helped start BRAVO Youth Orchestras’ Cesar Chavez Wind Program in Portland. My work with All Classical Radio began as Artist in Residence in 2020-2021. I also served as the Chair of the station’s inaugural award-winning Recording Inclusivity Initiative Panel. When I am not performing, radio hosting, or teaching, I enjoy sleeping and finding new lakes to kayak in the area.
Adam Eccleston is a contributing host and producer for On Deck with Young Musicians.
Andrea Murray
On Air Host
I’ve won journalism awards, contributed to national shows, and interviewed some of my idols - from Dawn Upshaw and Marin Alsop to Lily Tomlin and Laurie Anderson. I’d never call myself a musician, but I play a few instruments... let’s say “enthusiastically.” I make a little art and do some writing. I fall in love with every dog I meet.
Andrea Murray hosts All Classical Radio's overnight hours most nights from 10:00 PM PT to 2:00 AM PT. She’s also the host and producer of Club Mod and Northwest Previews.
Brandi Parisi
Assistant Program Director
I’ve also worked as an engineer in the music business, and currently teach philosophy at Portland Community College. I love dogs, going out to see movies, cooking at home, and traveling, which is made even better by getting to come home to Portland, and the Pacific Northwest!
Brandi Parisi is All Classical Radio's host weekdays from 10:00 AM PT to 2:00 PM PT, and Sundays from 6:00 AM PT to 10:00 AM PT. She is also the host and producer of Played in Oregon, and produces the Oregon Symphony Broadcast series.

Edmund Stone
On Air Host
I’ve always had an affinity for entertaining and trained as a Shakespearean actor. In the 1980s, I was hired by the BBC and became their Hollywood correspondent, and after living in LA for a decade, I moved to Portland and worked in films and television. In 2001, I joined the All Classical team and created The Score in 2006. I became a US citizen in 2008, on my birthday. I’m an avid gardener and live in a 19th-century rose-covered cottage with my wife Cindy. I’m an incurable romantic, and I love to entertain and make people laugh.
Edmund Stone is the creator and producer of The Score, a nationally syndicated film music program, which airs every Saturday and Sunday at 2:00 PM PT on All Classical Radio.

Sarah Zwinklis
ICAN Program Manager, Host, and Producer
I grew up moving around the world with my family before landing at Columbia College in Chicago, where I studied Radio Broadcast Production. My passion for radio truly ignited while tinkering with audio software in school. That's when I knew this was the career path for me.
I spent an unforgettable year living in Melbourne, Australia after graduating, after which I began my radio career at WFMT in Chicago working on programs for Lyric Opera Broadcasts, the Grant Park Music Festival, and producing the Deems Taylor Award-winning show, Relevant Tones. I’ve also worked at NPR's WBEZ and contributed to liners and promos for WMVP, Chicago's ESPN AM station. Since 2019, I have had the pleasure of being Program Director of All Classical Radio’s International Children’s Arts Network – a 24-hour resource for children, families, and educators.
Beyond radio, I enjoy exploring new podcasts, going to comedy shows, painting my nails, and discovering hidden gems in the Pacific Northwest. I am passionate about storytelling, and connecting with listeners and young people.
Steven Joinson
ICAN Production Assistant
In my free time, you might catch me running alongside the Willamette River, playing board games with friends, or enjoying the beautiful scenery that is given to us by the Pacific Northwest.
Steven Joinson is the Production Assistant for the International Children's Arts Network.
Suzanne Nance
President & CEO
My career in broadcasting began at WHYY in Philadelphia where I had the opportunity to watch TV and radio be produced by extraordinary individuals. I was bitten by the broadcast bug and the rest, (as they say) is history. I love storytelling. I love gathering communities together around music and outstanding content that connects. I've had the opportunity to work on dozens of radio and TV programs and documentaries. At Maine Public, I created the Emmy-award-winning TV series MaineArts! and the radio series: Music that Moves ME. At All Classical Radio, I enjoy my work as CEO and the creative opportunity to produce Sunday Brunch: A weekly exploration of cultures through delicious music.
Suzanne Nance is the creator, host, and producer of Sunday Brunch.
