Welcome to Russell Scoones Music
I am based in Auckland, New Zealand. My website will tell you about the various music activities I am involved in. These include my music therapy work, music for children, guitar lessons and music composition.
News:
September 2010. The music continues...
A new work for Touch Compass Dance Company premiered on August 18 at Auckland's Concert Chamber and went on to have a sell out season.I composed and recorded the score for Carol Brown's SLIP I'm not falling I'm just hanging on for as long as you hold me, which received excellent reviews. Other compositions to be getting an airing are my Listening Table installation piece for The Waking Project. This work in collaboration with sleep scientists is about to go to Brazil, Christchurch and Kyoto to international conferences in Sleep/Wake research.
Music is so diverse. I am still holding CHILDREN'S MUSIC at One 2 One Cafe on Ponsonby Rd Auckland on Tuesdays 9.30 and 10.30. I am lucky enough to get asked to play at lots of kids birthday parties too, which are always lots of fun.
My work with the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre continues.
Look out for my new band that will be performing soon. THE VERANDAHS are soon to be making an impression on your ears with our songs of life and love.
