Radio New Zealand Concert is a publicly funded non-commercial New Zealand FM radio network owned by Radio New Zealand, which broadcasts classical and jazz music, as well as regular news updates from Radio New Zealand News.
Prior to 22 January 2007, Radio New Zealand Concert was known as Concert FM. The name change was part of a wider name change within Radio New Zealand, because it was found that some listeners did not associate Concert FM with the Radio New Zealand brand.
