SUNY Orange Faculty Profiles:
“Since taking over the SUNY Orange Symphonic Band in January 2006, Kevin Scott has sculpted a remarkable turnaround for the group by reaching out to the community, plucking talented artists, and infusing his dedicated, professional and workmanlike attitude into his performers’ practices and concerts. So when Scott pronounces his vision of the symphonic band serving as a beacon not only for the College, but the entire Hudson Valley and beyond, it’s easy to believe he will accomplish his goal.”
