Kol Hamusica began at the Levant Fair in 1932, expanding significantly in 1936 with the establishment of the Palestine Broadcasting Service, which later evolved into the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra. The "Kol Hamusica" network, launched in 1983, became Israel's first full stereophonic sound radio station, broadcasting a diverse range of music from classical to modern, including Israeli compositions. Over the years, the station has promoted art music in Israel through musical events, live concert broadcasts, and an extensive archive documenting Israeli art.[1]

The station was renewed on May 15, 2017, under the name Kan Kol Hamusica, after the creation of Kan 11.
