Ron Riddle, Composer

Ron Riddle’s diverse and eclectic career has spanned over 4 decades and includes playing drums in the heavy metal band Blue Oyster Cult as well as The Cars, to the writing of over one hundred and sixty film scores for national and worldwide broadcast. He has worked in collaboration with producers and filmmakers from CBS, Discovery, Turner, CNN, Animal Planet, Disney, A&E, National Geographic, The

Currently, Ron is completing a soundtrack for the creation of the sand mandala which will be presented to the Dali Lama at his visit to Ithaca NY in September. The installation will be at the Johnson Museum of Art at Cornell University. The last fourteen years of Ron's life have also been dedicated to the rescue and forming of what animal behaviorists call an interspecies pack with two timber! wolves that were on their way to "death row". Chance, the most recent of the rescues, currently lives with The Riddles in the heart of the Finger Lakes.
