Music is Fred Karlin’s life: from jazz to symphonic music, from ethnic to electronic music, from composing to writing about it and finally teaching it. Very little of Karlin’s music is available on disc. However, a series of CD’s, focusing mainly on Karlin’s television scores, will be released during the next 2 years. The first album will contain THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN, VAMPIRE and INSIDE THE THIRD REICH. The second one will contain excerpts from THE STALKING MOON and ROBERT KENNEDY AND HIS DAYS. Fred Karlin was nominated, with various collaborators, for three Oscars for songs in the films THE STERILE CUCKOO and THE LITTLE ARK, and for the score to THE BABY MAKER. He won his Emmy for THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN.
