Instrument: Scott’s bassoon is an early-9000 series Heckel, from 1945

Career Highlights: Often, whichever Masterworks program Scott is currently performing seems to be a "career highlight." With that said, performing a concert in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, China in 2002 was rather special.
Passions and Interests: Beyond being fortunate enough to live their passion for making and teaching music, Scott and Marie dedicate a lot of energy to travel. Their marriage began with a wedding in Vienna, Austria! Since that beginning, they have traveled to England, France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Slovenia, Slovakia, Hungary, Turkey, China, Taiwan, Japan, and of course Canada (including Newfoundland!).
