At its height, it was America's most widely listened to weekly classical music program produced by public radio, and aired on approximately 200 stations nationwide.

According to the Saint Paul Sunday website, the show's premise was, "What would it be like to hear the Juilliard String Quartet perform in your living room?

Host Bill McGlaughlin opened the studio to the world's best classical musicians, of every conceivable style and mix, for both discussion and performance — giving listeners intimate access to how excellent music was created.

In addition, Saint Paul Sunday has itself commissioned new works from composers such as Pierre Jalbert, Aaron Jay Kernis, Nicholas Maw (in partnership with PRI), Kenneth Frazelle, Gabriela Lena Frank, and Edgar Meyer, among others.

Voegeli came up with the idea for Saint Paul Sunday Morning, with McGlaughlin as host — a distinctive, intimate program which would present world-class musicians, live, to a national audience.

The series' unique approach and sense of exuberance and curiosity won it hundreds of thousands of enthusiastic listeners, and the 1995 Peabody Award.
