Cal also composes music for television and has scored over 50 documentaries and specials for PBS, including three Frontlines, and Oregon Public Broadcasting's Oregon Experience.  A master of many styles, his specialty is scoring to picture: creating the right music to tell the story. In addition to his dramatic orchestrations, he has developed a feel for folk music of many cultures, helping a film establish a sense of place and time.
Cal is also a singer-songwriter, and has recently released a CD called Carved Wood Box.  He was awarded First Place in the Great American Song Contest in the Singer/Songwriter category for the song, "Paid Too Much for the Diamond" from the CD. He is the musical director of "The Trail Band" and also records and tours with Irish fiddler Kevin Burke. Their CD Across the Black River was hailed as “one of the top 12 world music CDs of 2007” by the New York Times. Go to calscottmusic.com to learn more about Cal and his music.
