Carl joins South By Southwest as a panelist for “They Used to Call It Classical”, a discussion hosted by journalist Ed Ward and also featuring critic Alex Ross, Justin Kantor (Le Poisson Rouge), and Janet Cowperthwaite (Kronos Quartet).

Chamber music in nightclubs, composers collaborating with pop stars, pop stars as composers, performance ensembles with genre-breaking repertoire, and a groundswell of young audiences: this is the music formerly known as “classical.” Is it really as healthy as it seems out there? Has the death of the record company meant the birth of new possibilities for composers and performers? SXSW is bringing together a group of experts who’ve been in the forefront of all of this in recent years to see what they think.

Artists:

• Carl Stone
• Alex Ross
• Janet Cowperthwaite
• Justin Kantor
• Ed Ward (moderator)
