Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.89.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪L235‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 18:20, 24 March 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

'''''Saint Paul Sunday''''' is a [[Peabody Award]]-winning weekly classical music [[radio]] program that aired from 1980 to 2007, with encore broadcasts airing through 2012. It was hosted by [[Bill McGlaughlin]] for its entire run.  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.<ref>[http://saintpaulsunday.publicradio.org/about/peabody.php ''Saint Paul Sunday'' site - Peabody Award] ((webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080514160752/http://saintpaulsunday.publicradio.org/about/peabody.php |date=2008-05-14 ))</ref> Programs since 1997 are also available as archived audio on the Internet.<ref name="archived">[http://saintpaulsunday.publicradio.org/programs/ ''Saint Paul Sunday'': Past, current, and future shows, listenable online]</ref> The hour-long show featured live, in-studio performances by and interviews with the world's top classical musicians, both soloists and ensembles.

For each hour-long show, McGlaughlin invited a [[virtuoso]] soloist or ensemble into the studio to discuss and perform music. The music on the program generally fit under the wide umbrella of [[classical music]], and the pieces performed ran the gamut from late [[medieval]] through to [[contemporary music]].

''Saint Paul Sunday'' was distributed by [[American Public Media]], and produced in the [[St. Paul, Minnesota]] studios of [[Minnesota Public Radio]], American Public Media's main subsidiary.

==Format==

===Premise===

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? Or to invite violinist [[Joshua Bell]] over for brunch and Bach?" 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. McGlaughlin engaged each soloist or ensemble in spontaneous live questioning and conversation, so that insights, anecdotes, and commentary alternated with live performances by the guest musicians.

One of the show's intentions was to disprove the misconception that [[chamber music]] is open only to [[connoisseur]]s. McGlaughlin aims to dispel this view, and to make the music fresh, lively, and fun.<ref>[http://saintpaulsunday.publicradio.org/about/ ''Saint Paul Sunday'': About the Program]</ref>

===Outreach===

To keep the music and performances contemporary and relevant to today's audiences, ''Saint Paul Sunday'' expanded the definition of chamber music. The show included a diverse and eclectic mix of performers and music from around the world — music and musicians which have included Brazilian ''[[choro]]'' music from the Robison-Lubambo-Baptista Trio, American gospel group the Albert McNeil Jubilee Singers, Latin-American and African carols and folk dances from [[Andrew Lawrence-King]] and [[The Harp Consort]], the [[viol]] quartet [[Phantasm (music group)|Phantasm]], jazz trumpeter [[Art Farmer]], Bolivian Andean music specialists [[Rumillajta]], eclectic composer [[Mark O'Connor]] and the Appalachia Waltz Trio, and African-American Latino wind group [[Imani Winds]].

''Saint Paul Sunday'' often hosted performances of recent music by living composers — composers which have included [[Thomas Adès]], [[George Tsontakis]], [[Osvaldo Golijov]], [[Fred Lerdahl]], [[Derek Bermel]], [[Frederic Rzewski]], and dozens of others. In addition, ''Saint Paul Sunday'' has itself commissioned new works from composers such as [[Pierre Jalbert]], [[Aaron Jay Kernis]], [[Nicholas Maw]] (in partnership with [[Public Radio International|PRI]]), Kenneth Frazelle, [[Gabriela Lena Frank]], and [[Edgar Meyer]], among others.

For physical outreach, from time to time McGlaughlin and ''Saint Paul Sunday'' have traveled to do on-site programs with notable classical musical ensembles at various venues around the U.S. These concerts have generated much excitement from local audiences. To further make classical music more accessible to more people, ''Saint Paul Sunday'' has also done residencies at [[primary school|primary]] and [[secondary school]]s in the [[Midwest]] — which include recording sessions, performances, and question-and-answer sessions with McGlaughlin, the musicians, and the students.<ref>[http://www.nea.gov/about/02Annual/annual02.pdf "''St. Paul Sunday'' Radio Program Features the Best of Contemporary Chamber Music."] ''National Endowment for the Arts, Annual Report 2002.'' p. 29</ref>

==Inception and history==

During the late 1970s, Pennsylvania native [[Bill McGlaughlin]], a trombonist and conductor, was engaged as Associate Conductor of the [[Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra]]. Before conducting a performance he often spoke to the audience, informally explaining the program and what to listen for. [[Garrison Keillor]] heard him, and invited McGlaughlin to fill in occasionally as host of his daily [[The Morning Show (Minnesota Public Radio)|morning radio show]] on [[Minnesota Public Radio]] (MPR).<ref>[http://blogs.wcny.org/bill-mcglaughlin-interview Bill McGlaughlin Interview] ((webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121123223441/http://blogs.wcny.org/bill-mcglaughlin-interview/ |date=2012-11-23 )). [[WCNY-FM|WCNY]] Blog. November 30, 2011.</ref><ref>Phillips, Lisa. [https://www.amazon.com/dp/1593151438 ''Public Radio: Behind the Voices''.] Vanguard Press, 2006. p. 316</ref>

Around this same time, [[National Public Radio]] gained access to a [[communications satellite]], which meant that production was no longer limited to New York, Los Angeles, or Washington, D.C. Cities with [[uplink]]s, like St. Paul, could finally produce their own national shows. Consequently, in 1979 the [[Mellon Foundation]] provided MPR with seed money to make several pilot programs.<ref name="Uslan">Uslan, Rachel. [http://articles.latimes.com/2001/mar/02/entertainment/ca-32082 "It Wouldn't Be a Sunday Without 'Saint Paul'"]. ''Los Angeles Times'', March 2, 2001. p. F-26 (retrieved October 10, 2008)</ref><ref>Mellon Foundation 1979 Annual Report, p. 58</ref>

In early 1980, via local benefactors, Minnesota Public Radio also built a new [[Recording studio|studio]] — the Maud Moon Weyerhaeuser Studio ("Studio M") — a beautiful space with 20-foot windows overlooking St. Paul’s cathedral district.<ref>Birge, John. [http://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2008/03/05/sivertsontribute/ "A Tribute to Sarah-Maud Sivertsen."] ''Minnesota Public Radio.'' March 5, 2008</ref><ref>[http://saintpaulsunday.publicradio.org/features/0005_juilliard/ ''Each Show Is Different: A Glimpse Behind the Scenes at Saint Paul Sunday'']</ref><ref>[http://studiomrecording.publicradio.org/ Studio M]</ref> This inspired producer Tom Voegeli, then working in national programming for MPR, to create a new show that would play to the studio’s strengths. 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. Voegeli also wanted McGlaughlin to sound like a musician rather than like a broadcaster, and to share his own spontaneous, animated enthusiasm with listeners.<ref name="Uslan" /><ref>Phillips, Lisa. [https://www.amazon.com/dp/1593151438 ''Public Radio: Behind the Voices''.] Vanguard Press, 2006. pp. 316-317</ref>

The show debuted on MPR in 1980, and was picked up nationally in 1981, eventually shortening its name to ''Saint Paul Sunday'' to allow stations to broadcast it at any time of the day on Sunday. The series' unique approach and sense of exuberance and curiosity won it hundreds of thousands of enthusiastic listeners, and the 1995 [[Peabody Award]].<ref name=Peabody />

==Impact and reception==

In 1995 the [[Peabody Award]], the highest honor in broadcasting, was awarded to ''Saint Paul Sunday''. The foundation stated:

:For 15 years Minnesota Public Radio's ''Saint Paul Sunday'' has provided listeners with extraordinary access to the world's finest classical musicians. The luminaries presented by Bill McGlaughlin, host since the show's inception, ... [are numerous]. ''Saint Paul Sunday'' presents emerging new talent as well as commissioned classical works, including those by new composers [[Aaron Jay Kernis]], Kenneth Frazelle, and [[Edgar Meyer]]. Through the program's music and discussion format, listeners get to know the people behind the music and gain insight into the creative process. For an excellent series showcasing classical music, a Peabody to Minnesota Public Radio for ''Saint Paul Sunday.''<ref name=Peabody>[http://www.peabody.uga.edu/winners/details.php?id=162 Peabody Awards: ''Saint Paul Sunday'']</ref>
