Fredricks appeared at most of the major theatres in the Americas, as well as in Hamburg, Frankfurt, Venice, Israel, Brussels and Mexico. In Canada, he sang the part of the Count de Luna in Il trovatore (Montreal), Rigoletto (Toronto and Quebec City), Scarpia in Tosca (Winnipeg) and as Demetrius in A Midsummer Night's Dream (Vancouver). His recordings include contributions to The Treasury of Great Operettas, The Tender Land, Lizzie Borden and Duruflé's Requiem. He directed La bohème with both the Michigan Opera and the Duluth Opera, as well as singing Lescaut and directing the production of Manon with the Honolulu Opera.

He appeared as himself in the November 5, 1971 episode titled, "Does Your Mother Know You're Out, Rigoletto", of The Odd Couple in which he sang selections from La traviata and Camelot ("If Ever I Would Leave You").
