Created on 2 April 1996, Musique Classique was a television channel owned by AB Groupe.

The programming consisted of classical concerts, opera, lyrical works, and magazine programmes (e.g. À livret ouvert...).

The channel was run by Jean-Michel Fava.

Musique Classique was shown on the AB Sat package, some cable operators, such as Noos-Numericable (see also Numericable (NOOS)) and ADSL operators such as Freebox TV. The channel was not available on Canalsat or TPS.
