Swiss Radio International are ending English broadcasts on 12th April. Rest
of A04 season will have music in place of English language broadcasts.

Announcer Isabel (surname unclear- Rivone?) stated on 3rd April that the
English service is ending broadcasts on April 12th.

What reasons has SRI given for discontinuing the English service?

I don't know, have emailed the station to ask.

I have listened to them since 1964 and its a very sad decision.

Each transmission until close down of the English language
service on Monday 12th April there will be some historic
recordings of the station. On 5th April they had a recording
of Louis Armstrong from a show in 1955.
