KNTU 88.1 The One is the jazz programming service of the University of North Texas radio station KNTU, streaming live online at kntu.com and broadcast on the 88.1 HD-2 subchannel for listeners in the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex and beyond. Rooted in the legacy of one of the nation’s premier university jazz programs, The One delivers around-the-clock jazz music alongside a rich lineup of specialty programs that have made KNTU a respected name in jazz broadcasting for decades. Fans of real jazz — from bebop and swing to contemporary and fusion — can stream live at any time through kntu.com or via the KNTU HD-2 signal.

The programming lineup draws from a deep catalog of nationally distributed jazz shows alongside locally produced content. Jazz at Lincoln Center, hosted by veteran actor and New Orleans native Wendell Pierce, brings weekly performances and storytelling from one of the world’s most prestigious jazz institutions. Riverwalk Jazz, featuring the Jim Cullum Jazz Band, pays tribute to jazz pioneers through live performance and historical narrative, while Piano Jazz — the celebrated public radio series featuring Marian McPartland — offers intimate sessions between McPartland and her guests. Locally produced programs round out the schedule, including La Onda Tejana on Saturday mornings, McKinney in Focus for community news and affairs, and The Late Edition — a student-produced newscast covering Denton, Dallas–Fort Worth, and beyond that has been recognized by the Broadcast Education Association as one of the finest student radio newscasts in the country.
