World-class musical artists recorded live in small listening rooms and intimate spaces.

The Chenango Sessions, hosted by Andru Bemis and originating from WBDY FM Binghamton, is a weekly radio program which features world-class musicians playing in intimate spaces--living rooms, parlors, and listening rooms--for small, enthusiastic audiences. Audiences and artists are encouraged to interact, and the program is edited to move quickly while retaining the spirit of the live performance..

Funding for the Chenango Sessions is provided in part by a Project Grant from the Broome County Arts Council's United Cultural Fund.
