Scott Perkins
Composer
Biography
Connecticut native Scott Perkins enjoys a multifaceted career as an international prize-winning composer of vocal music, an award-winning scholar, and an educator. His “beautifully crafted” compositions (American Record Guide) have been called “dramatic” and “colorful” (The Washington Post), and “perfectly orchestrated” and “haunting” (The Washington Times). He has been commissioned by organizations ranging from the Washington National Opera to the American Guild of Organists, and his work has been performed throughout North America and Europe. He has released three discs on the Gothic and Navona labels, and he is published by E. C. Schirmer, Augsburg Fortress, and Paraclete Press. In 2017 Scott joined the faculty at California State University, Sacramento, where he is Head of Music Theory and Composition and co-directs its Festival of New American Music. Scott holds a PhD (composition) and two MA degrees (music theory and theory pedagogy) from the Eastman School of Music. www.scott-perkins.com.
