Saint Paul Sunday is a Peabody Award-winning weekly classical music radio program, hosted by Bill McGlaughlin. It is America's most widely listened to weekly classical music program produced by public radio, and airs on approximately 200 stations nationwide. Programs since 1997 are also available as archived audio on the Internet. The one-hour show features live, in-studio performances by and interviews with the world's top classical musicians, both soloists and ensembles.
For each hour-long show, host Bill McGlaughlin invites a virtuoso soloist or ensemble into the studio to discuss and perform music. The music on the program generally fits under the wide umbrella of classical music, and the pieces performed run the gamut from late medieval through to contemporary music.
Saint Paul Sunday is distributed by American Public Media, and is produced in the Saint Paul, Minnesota studios of Minnesota Public Radio, American Public Media's main subsidiary.
