Karl Haas (1913 - February 6, 2005) was a classical music radio show host. He was the host of Adventures in Good Music, which was syndicated to commercial and public radio stations in the United States. He also published a book, Inside Music.
Mr. Haas started Adventures in Good Music at WJR-AM in Detroit, Michigan in 1959 and later syndicated sometime in the early 1970s at WCLV, a Cleveland, Ohio radio station. The story goes that the station people wanted him to call it something like "Adventures in Classical Music", which he rejected as being too narrow, or "Adventures in Music", which he rejected as being too broad. He chose the title as being in line with his philosophy that there are really only two kinds of music: good and bad.
