   About Scott Thornton Music
_________________________________________________________________________ Bassist/composer Scott Thornton has performed extensively throughout North America, Western and Eastern Europe, the Caribbean, and Russia on double bass and electric bass, as well as horn and trumpet. He performs regularly around the New York City area in large and small venues, from the Blue Note, Birdland, and the former CBGB's, to Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and the Kennedy Center. Scott has also done numerous recording engagements covering a wide range of styles including jazz, classical, world, blues, and pop/rock. - - - - Scott's performing groups include The Scott Thornton Jazz Trio, Jazzmango, and the Scott Thornton Groove Trio. The Jazz Trio offers repertoire including the American standards, Latin, Modern Jazz, and original material. The Groove Trio is similar to the Jazz Trio but with a "groovy" inspired sound of Scott on Fender bass, reminiscent of the 60's and 70's. These trios are often augmented by other musicians to create larger ensemble textures. Jazzmango features guitarist John LaBarbera and percussionist Yousif Sheronick, performing Brazilian and Mediterranean inspired music. They were featured entertainment at last year's U.S. Open Tennis Tournament. In addition to his numerous jazz outlets, Scott also performs with the original acid folk/acoustic rock band Yucca Flats(Mapleshade/Wildchild Records), Ginetta's Vendetta, Riverside Orchestra, Orchestra of the Bronx, New Jersey Verismo Opera Orchestra, Artemis Chamber Ensemble, SEM Ensemble, etc. - as well as Off-Broadway Musicals: Wanda's World and Mud Donahue & Son.- - - - - H I S T O R Y . . . Scott was born and raised in Dickinson, North Dakota and is the youngest of six sibling musicians. Growing up in such a musical family was both the ignition and fuel for Scott's musical journey. He is forever grateful and indebted to each member of his family as mentors and role models. This musical family sprouted from the inspiration and instruction of their father, who was the high school band director, and their mother's persistence and dedication to their education. All of the Thorntons are still professionally involved in music performance and music education. Scott studied Horn Performance at the University of Iowa, earned a Bachelor of Science in Music Education from the University of Minnesota, and completed his Masters degree in Conducting from the University of Connecticut. Scott's free time is spent moonlighting as a tennis pro at Central Park Tennis Center in Manhattan. .. ..

Hey there,

Here's one from left field...

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?

A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.

Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

Help to raise awareness.

Say have you checked out my web site recently?

Take care and keep in touch.

Best,
Faber.
