About B. G. Scharnhorst
Hi there, welcome to my profile.
I'm a sucker for minor key tonality, demanding instrumental part writing, a clear focus on recording studio production, and intricate arranging. I've a life's dream of one day being able to write such compositions myself.
Among my favorite artists are The Alan Parsons Project, Steely Dan, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Pat Metheny (with and w/o Group), and Pink Floyd.
I have strong beliefs in how music can enhance or alter your mood, and have, on many an occasion, 'programmed' myself for a specific mood by listening to a specific song or group.
I've no use for Top 40 Pop, Rap, or Hip-Hop. Some Country is OK to me, but definitely not all. Progressive Rock, Jazz, and New Age are A-1 in my book. World music is so-so (though I do have a soft spot for the Ska-based group Madness), as is "Alternative", R&B, and "Oldies". Having said that, any virtuoso performance by any instrumentalist is welcomed by me, regardless of genre.
I was raised by wonderful, music-loving parents that got non-stop enjoyment from "big bands" (Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, Harry James, just to name a few), Percy Faith, Mantovani, Andy Williams, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, and Henry Mancini. It should come as no surprise, then, that these are artists I also enjoy listening to.
