His encouraging skills and a good sense of humour during the rehearsals helped him to achieve an extremely high musical standard... One can feel that music is for him always a dialouge with people in which he brings in his vast knowledge of repertoire and a passion which is not all that common in the musical world. His love for tiny details, his sense for overall musical architecture, his flexibility and open-mindedness and sheer passion for music makes him a joy for a composer to work with." Johannes Maria Staud , 2007-09 Lewis Composer Fellow The Cleveland Orchestra "I have worked with Scott in both orchestra and chamber music and am very impressed with his professionalism, rehearsal techniques, musical intelligence, imagination and the inspiration he elicits from the players. Scott is selfless in his approach, putting the music ahead of any self-aggrandizement...He is a highly capable conductor and a sentient musician who is destined to have a career in both traditional and contemporary music." Cliff Colnot , principal conductor Chicago Symphony MusicNOW, Civic Orchestra of Chicago "...a very enthusiastic and energetic young conductor who rehearsed the ensemble effectively. He is very sensitive in timing and balance, precise in pitch and rhythm and gave an excellent performance of my octet...I was deeply impressed." Chen Yi , composer "Scott's abilities as a conductor and musician cannot be lauded enough. From the very first rehearsal, he exhibits absolute command of the score and of the ensemble...He possesses a keen intellect, a superb ear and the ability to convey clearly and directly his musical desires..." Claude Baker , composer former Composer-in-Residence, Saint Louis Symphony player performance credit Georgina Joshi, soprano Indiana University New Music Ensemble Scott Voyles, conductor |
