Orchestra Director
Dr. Scott McCormick
Langley High School
Dr. McCormick (aka ”Doc” to his
students) is in his 14th year of teaching with
the Fairfax County Public school system as
director of the orchestral program at
Langley. Originally from Canada, he
completed his B.M. at the University of
Western Ontario and his M.M. and D.M. in Performance and Literature from
Indiana University. He was recently invited to join the music faculty at Patrick
Henry College, where he serves as an adjunct professor of music theory and
instructional music. He also performs as a violist with the Washington Bach
Consort and has played with a number of period instrument ensembles in the
D.C. area.
Dr. McCormick is a contributor to new research in the historical
performance practice of music of Baroque era. He specializes in the
performance of the viola d’amore, an unusual baroque instrument with
sympathetic strings. An excerpt of his doctoral thesis ‘Pur al fin Gentil Viola’
was published in the Newsletter of the Viola d’Amore Society of America. One
of his performances, from the National Gallery in Ottawa with members of the
Canadian group Tafelmusik, was broadcast nationally by CBC radio. He has
also performed as a viola d’amore soloist with the Richmond Symphony, with
the Penn State University Baroque Orchestra, and for the annual National
Cathedral performance of Bach’s St. John Passion.
Dr. McCormick, and his wife Rebekah are founders of the Second Fiddle
Farm, a 12-acre facility in Loudoun County, which is home to two horses, three
sheep, and seven chickens. Their spunky seven-year-old daughter, Norah, and
younger brother, Hugh, keep Doc and Rebekah filled with joy when he is not
teaching his Langley Orchestra students.

2014 White House
Christmas Ornament
Fundraiser for Langley Orchestra Society
HONORING PRESIDENT WARREN G. HARDING
The 2014 White House Christmas ornament honors the administration of
Warren G. Harding, who served as the twenty-ninth president of the United States
from 1921 to 1923. As a young boy, Harding dreamed of being a locomotive
engineer—a wish that was to come true for 51 minutes when as president, he took
over the controls on the Alaskan railroad during the “Voyage of Understanding,” his
famous transcontinental speaking and sightseeing tour. The Presidential Special, the
train that carried President Harding west at the outset of his ambitious voyage and
that would tragically carry his casket back east following his sudden death, just two
months later, is the inspiration for our 2014 ornament.
Decorated with gold tones and enamel finishes, the 33rd annual White House
Christmas Ornament is our first ornament to be comprised of two pieces, which can
be hung as two separate ornaments or linked together. The locomotive is a detailed
miniature replica of one of several steam-powered locomotives that pulled the
Presidential Special; it is attached to the coal car that held its fuel. The other
miniature car is the Superb, the president’s private heavyweight Pullman car. The
last car on the Special, the Superb was outfitted with a public address system.
