Composer Ron Ramin
Chances are that you’ve heard the music of award-winning composer Ron Ramin. He has composed the musical scores for more than 250 hours of US network television, including 20 prime-time series and more than 30 original movies/miniseries.
Born and raised in New York City, Ron studied piano with
Genia Robinor and earned his undergraduate degree from Princeton University. He studied composition and orchestration with Milton Babbitt and composed for Princeton’s famed musical comedy troupe, the Princeton Triangle Club. Upon graduation, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career as a film composer. He also studied privately with Albert Harris and Anthony Vazzana (composition and orchestration) and William Kettering (conducting). His thematic and soaring orchestral approach has been rewarded with a CableACE Award and a Primetime EMMY nomination, plus Most Performed Awards from both BMI and ASCAP.
Recently, Ron has returned to his first love: composing in concert form. His recent work, Golden State of Mind, is a three movement orchestral suite that reflects his passion for the state of California.

I was gratified by the warm audience response. Congratulations again on a super piece — all the more impressive, as I said to the audience on Saturday, for it being your first time at that particular rodeo! — Alasdair Neale, Conductor and Marin Symphony Music Director
Ron lives in Mill Valley, CA with his wife, author and journalist Cathryn Jakobson Ramin. He spends considerable time in both Los Angeles and New York City. He is a former Board Member of the Society of Composers & Lyricists (The SCL) and a writer and publisher member of ASCAP.
