Scott McCreary, 22, is a junior from Orlando, FL and a Neuropsychology major. A student of Ole Akahoshi at the Yale School of Music, he studied with Einar Holm (Ithaca College) and David Ying (Eastman) prior to matriculation. At age 14 he made his solo debut with the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra, and as an orchestral musician he has served as the principal cellist of several nationally recognized ensembles, including the Honor Orchestra of America, the New York State All-State Orchestra, and the Yale Symphony Orchestra. As a chamber musician, he has been invited to the Quartet Program with Charlie Castleman, the Robert McDuffie Festival for Strings, and Kathie Johnson's Bay Chamber Music Institute, and his piano quartet was the winner of the Syracuse Friends of Chamber Music Competition.

As a singer, he travels the world as the tour manager and emcee of the Yale Spizzwinks(?), America's oldest underclassman a cappella group, and he has appeared as Count Almaviva in the Opera Theatre of Yale College's production of Marriage of Figaro and as Hercules in the Yale Baroque Opera Project's production Giasone.
