He enjoys a dual career as both conductor and clarinetist, often finding an occasion to perform a selection with the Pops on one of his brightly colored clarinets.

Carl is also conductor of the Firelands Symphony Orchestra, based in Sandusky, Ohio. After 42 years as conductor of the National Repertory Orchestra, a summer festival in Breckenridge, CO, he is continuing an active role with the orchestra as Conductor Laureate. He was named Faculty Emeritus after 37 years as Conductor and Director of the Orchestral Program at the Cleveland Institute of Music and has served as principal pops conductor of the Toledo Symphony Orchestra, Southwest Florida Symphony Orchestra and Mansfield Symphony Orchestra.

Topilow has performed as guest conductor with 133 different orchestras in 37 states and 12 foreign countries. He continues his role as educator with his work as clinician and teacher for conductors.

Topilow’s late wife Shirley Morgenstern was the founding President and CEO of the Cleveland Pops Orchestra. Their daughter Emily is the Director of Strategy and Planning with the Cleveland Pops Orchestra, and their daughter Jenny is a violinist with the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra.

YOUTH EDUCATION CLEVELAND POPS YOUTH ORCHESTRA In partnership with The Music Settlement, the Cleveland Pops Youth Orchestra prepares middle and high school musicians to reach their full potential. Students rehearse weekly, receive coaching from professional Cleveland Pops musicians, and perform throughout Northeast Ohio—developing musical excellence, self‐confidence, and leadership skills that last a lifetime.

ACTUAL MUSIC – ELEMENTARY OUTREACH Actual Music introduces young students to the joy of making music while building confidence and connection. Through singing, movement, and hands‐on keyboard exploration, children play simple melodies from the Cleveland Pops repertoire and learn how voices, bodies, and instruments work together. The program culminates in a joyful class performance—often a child’s very first time performing as part of an ensemble. Your support helps give children their first meaningful musical experience.
