Scott MooreFaculty

Professor in Music

Scott Moore enjoyed a career as a teaching musician spanning four decades. He performed over a thousand concerts with top American orchestras, jazz artists, and pop music stars, and hundreds of touring Broadway musicals. In recent years his attention has turned toward the college's general curriculum, helping Gusties learn resilience through developing a postive view of reality; the powerful idea of becoming what we think about.

Dr. Moore has served as a department chair and taught courses in music theory, education, music history, pop music, culture, technology and academic research. Currently he teaches courses in pop music, first-term seminars, and challenge seminars. No matter the subject, the most important aspect for his students to learn is the joy being a creator rather than a competitor. 

Moore is the only bass trombonist to have studied at the Juilliard School's Professional Studies program and holds Doctor of Musical Arts and Master of Music degrees from the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. Former teachers include Tony Chipurn, James E. Roberts, Arnold Jacobs, Don Harwood, Marie Speziale and Edward Treutel (a student of Herbert L. Clark). He loves to spend time with freinds, technology, old books, old cars, traveling with family, and comtemplating the nature of our reality.
