William McGlaughlin (October 3, 1943 – July 21, 2026) was an American composer, conductor, music educator, and Peabody Award–winning classical music radio host. He was the host and music director of the public radio programs Exploring Music and Saint Paul Sunday. A nationally noted radio commentator from 1981 onward, McGlaughlin was known for his cheerful, open, and down-to-earth personality on classical music radio. Beyond his career as a broadcaster and music educator, McGlaughlin also spent a decade as a professional orchestral musician, over three decades as a conductor, and a decade as a composer. He viewed the more recent, radio broadcast aspect of his musical career as outreach – as a way to keep classical music from becoming an increasingly marginalized art form, with ever-smaller and older audiences.
