Milan Kymlicka

Milan Kymlicka (15 May 1936 - 9 October 2008) was a Canadian arranger, composer and conductor of Czechoslovakian birth. He became a naturalized Canadian citizen in 1974. He was best known for his composition of film and television scores, including those for the animated television series Rupert and Babar. He received numerous awards for his work, including a Genie Award in 1996 for his work on Margaret's Museum.

Born in Louny, Kymlicka earned degrees from the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague and the Prague Conservatory. At the latter institution he was a pupil of Emil Hlobil. He began his work as a composer in his native country and by 1967 he had produced 20 film scores, a ballet, a cello concerto, several works for solo piano, and a number of string quartets.

In 1968 Kymlicka emigrated to Canada where he settled in Toronto. By the early 1970s he was one of the leading studio arranger/conductors at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. He remained busy as a composer, arranger, and conductor for film, television, and radio up until his death in Toronto in 2008.
