Music and Its Secret Influence

“[Music and Its Secret Influence] provides a fine history of classical music’s evolution, the effects of specific composers on music in society, and how music holds suggestive qualities for intuitive thinking. The result is an outstanding survey linking spirituality, culture, and music history in a strong pick for any music or new age library.” * Midwest Book Review, May 2013 *
“Composer and author Cyril Scott explores the role of music in the evolution of humanity and shows how it has pushed human evolution forward. He explains that music has a profound effect on history, morals, and culture and is a more potent force in the molding of character than religious creeds or moral philosophies.” * Monthly Aspectarian, May 2013 *
“What may, at first, seem to be an insurmountable undertaking is actually an easy to read, intriguing adventure of music and spirituality, all the more important due to its historic importance as a piece of social commentary on early 1930s Britain and Europe.” * Bruce Stringer, New Dawn, July 2013 *
“Scott predicts the music of the future and how people will understand the relationship between color, sound, healing and the deva world. This book will likely appeal to anyone interested in the inner essence of music and its impact in our lives.” * The Beacon, July 2013 *
