Music has a huge place on Tunisian radio, but every station has its own sound. Some play hit after hit, others preserve musical heritage, while some broadcast music alone without presenters.

Here are our favourite stations, organized by listening occasion rather than genre.

For working: uninterrupted music streams

Music web radios are ideal in the background: no loud adverts or phone-in competitions, just music. Misk offers a continuous stream of Arabic music, while Radio Orient focuses on major oriental classics and tarab.

For musical heritage: try public radio

Radio Culturelle regularly programmes classical music, malouf and rare recordings that are difficult to hear elsewhere. It is not strictly a music station, but its evening schedule is rewarding for anyone interested in Tunisian music.
