E. Scott Miller
Born in Denver, Colorado Scott began playing the Horn at age nine studying under Wilke Renwick, Principal Horn of the Denver Symphony. After moving to southern
California in the early 1970’s, Scott continued his studies with Jim Keays of
the University of Redlands, George Cable and Wendell Hoss both of San Diego.
At age 14, Scott played in the College of the Desert Symphony under the direction of Tom Mancini…with fond memories of eating fresh dates right off of the campus palm trees. At age 15 Scott began playing musical theatre, eventually working his way into the pit orchestras of ECPAC, Gilbert & Sullivan Theatre in Balboa Park, and more recently Lyric Opera San Diego. While still in high school, Scott had the privilege of playing for such theatre notables as Alan Quartermain as King Arthur in Camelot, and Ray Walston as Satan in Damn Yankees. With the 2011 demise of the Lyric Opera, Scott’s theatrical involvement is now mainly with youth theatre productions as a way to give back to the community of young budding thespians.
Though never his primary vocation, Scott has performed in a wide variety of musical settings ranging from professional theatre to community bands and orchestras. In addition to free-lancing Scott is a regular fixture with the Coastal Communities Concert Band, and the San Diego City Ballet.
