The Original Music of Kerry R.Scott.
The Recordings of Kerry R. Scott's Music
as presented in CD Format.
Continued from previous page.
The CDs "Bubble and Squeak", "Rattle and Rhyme" and "Beyond the Virtual Creation" represent early renditions of works by the composer and are realized on the Amiga computer system again utilizing early music publishing software but with realization being accomplished by the Amiga SID sound production Chip.
For the last ten years Mr. Scott has developed his own technique for the composition, production and realization of Electronic Music. Indeed he has developed a novel technique for integrating "virtual" instruments and traditional techniques of composition with "new" instrumental sounds and contemporary compositional approaches. 
His CD's Bubble and Squeak and Rattle and Rhyme and Beyond The Virtual Creation are good but early examples of his novel technique and expertise in the composition and realization of both analog and digital electronic music. It should be noted, however, that these examples use early and limited forms of computer composition and realization. In December 2003 he presented a fourth CD titled Brandy Butter, Brass and Bells. 
This fourth CD (written for a holiday celebration) represented a move of composition realization technique from a system using the Amiga computer system to a PC MIDI system; thus providing more variation and increased quality in the instrument sounds as well as an enhanced sound quality. Since that time four further CD's have been released under this new system -- The Old, the New and an Eclectic Medley, Mass 2100-revised, Symphony No. 1 -- Soundscapes of a Forgotten Britain and in December 2006 -- Contrasts for Christmas
During the last few years Mr. Scott has put together a compositional studio that is uniquely geared to his compositional style. This boasts of both analog instruments and digital equipment interfaced together to produce a flexible and possibly unique output that is the signature of Mr. Scott's compositions.
Mr. Scott's music has two distinct styles.
Firstly, although electronically realized and composed utilizing the computer, this style is traditional. 
He utilizes baroque harmonies and forms as well as creating "virtual" instruments with slight enhancement(changes). This creates the illusion of traditional instrumental groups playing within a "real", rather than a "virtual", environment. In addition appreciation of these works is made easier by the use of traditional and established harmonic, melodic and formal structures techniques.
Secondly, his composition style follows the trend of atonal music as demonstrated by Arnold Schoenberg and more recently Milton Babbit. 
In addition aleatory techniques are also employed within this Electronic music framework. Novel and new instrumental "virtual" sounds are featured and this together with an avant garde approach and traditional frameworks of composition make this style both interesting and exiting for the listener.
In addition to his electronic music production Mr. Scott continues to compose traditional music as commissioned by individuals. 
He has gained considerable success in composing music for religious services such as wedding ceremonies, christenings etc. In addition Mr. Scott has composed a large scale setting of the Roman Catholic Thanksgiving Mass -- Mass 2100. Many Parts of this musical Mass form can be used with simple accompaniment and small choir or just a cantor.
Mr. Scott is pleased to be able to offer representative CD's of his diverse compositional style and in addition to offer his compositional services to write composition commissions for interested individuals. See Compositions commission details.
