Though the South has depended in part on its neighbors to bring Classical music to our performance halls, we’re happy to claim some homegrown classical musicians as well. From Louis Moreau Gottschalk, the New Orleans composer who infused his arrangements with flavors of the Cajun South, to Anthony Philip Heinrich, the first conductor to conduct a Beethoven symphony in the United States in Lexington, Kentucky, to the stars of musical theater in Branson, Missouri, Classical Music legends and artists in the South abound.
