[ and  debut">edit] Musical education and  debut

His major teachers include Herman Reinshagen and  Stuart Sankey, with whom he studied at the Aspen Music Festival and  The Juilliard School. Karr's breakthrough came in 1962, when he was featured as a soloist in a nationally televised New York Philharmonic Young People's Concert, conducted by Leonard Bernstein. On that telecast, Karr performed The Swan from Camille Saint-Saëns' Carnival of the Animals among other works.

[edit] International Society of Bassists

In 1967, he founded the International Society of Bassists, an  organization devoted to the study, promotion, and  advancement of double bass playing around the world, which now boasts a membership of over 3,000 double bass performers, teachers, students, and  aficionados in more  than 40 countries.

[edit] Karr Foundation

Serge Koussevitzky's widow gave Karr the famous "Amati" double bass owned by her husband. In 1984, he established the Karr Foundation, a non-profit that loans instruments to promising young double bassists to assist in their professional development. He later donated this valuable Amati double bass to the International Society of Bassists to be played by other double bass soloists around the world.
