“Scott’s Concerto is more than simply a commission fulfilled. It is a highly personal work, as much a reflection of Glyn himself as a vehicle to display his artistry. Glyn’s youthful ambition to play in a leading brass band, and the years of relentless hard work that have been put in to fulfil that dream, are conveyed in a funky first movement, The Lure of the Red Jacket, full of virtuoso riffs for soloist and members of the band. The movement’s concentrated energy paves the way for a haunting and, for me, an emotionally draining slow movement, Far beyond the stars.”…Paul Hindmarsh, British Bandsman, September 2011​
