Notturno Group
Euroradio Notturno, launched in 1998, is a night-time broadcast, made up of three two-hour interchangeable modules, occasionally on given themes. The programming consists of EBU Members' Selections that are edited and produced by the BBC.
Notturno is now broadcast in 11 countries and can claim around one million listeners per night. No commercial CDs are used, and the rights for the offers have been cleared in advance.
