K. (Kayron) Lee Scott (born 1950 in Valley, Alabama) is an internationally known teacher, musician, conductor and composer of sacred music, choral music and hymns, residing in Birmingham, Alabama.

Biography

Scott has been recognized, during the past twenty plus years, as one of America's foremost composers of music for the church. His hymns are published in eight hymnals, including A New Hymnal for Colleges and Schools (Yale University Press), Voices United (The United Church of Canada) and With One Voice (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America). He has published over 300 compositions including anthems, hymns, works for solo voice, organ, brass, and major works including a Christmas Cantata and Te Deum, through more than a dozen publishers. He was jointly commissioned (1995) by the Hymn Society in the United States and Canada and Choristers Guild to compose a hymn setting for their convention in San Diego.

Scott holds two degrees in choral music from the University of Alabama School of Music, where he studied under Frederick Prentice. He has also studied composition with Paul Hedwall and Gail Kubik. He has served on the music faculty of the University of Alabama School of Music, the University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Music and the Samford University School of Music. He has appeared as guest conductor and clinician throughout the United States, and in Canada and Africa.

Scott's original hymn, titled "The Tree of Life" (Shades Mountain), has become one of the important hymn settings of our time.[1] Two volumes of SAB (soprano, alto, baritone) anthems, Coram Deo I and II, are gaining wide popularity. In addition, MorningStar Music Publishers published Rejoice in God: The Lee Scott Hymnary.
