“Jason hears music in 360º - nothing gets past this guy.”
-Michael Holland, Composer and Orchestrator
Composition/Orchestration
As an accomplished orchestrator, I am eager to create incredibly deep musical landscapes, regardless of the size of instrumentation. In addition to full orchestral and band works, I am often tasked with providing large and sweeping orchestrations realized by sometimes very small ensembles.
Music Direction
With a wide variety of artistic sensibilities and interests, I have been paired him with projects covering widely diverse musical styles from rock to classical to traditional and folk-inspired music. In the Twin Cities alone, helped direct and create several world premieres for over 20 new works over the last decade and have been critically praised including the 2018 MN Theater Award for Best Performative Direction.
Concert Works & Arrangements
Select arrangements include:
OVER 250 Showchoir and choral arrangements for schools, professional, and community choirs
Listen To The Children, words by Mike Brenner, Jessica Nesbaum, Larry Sagen, and Todd Scales
Clouds, words and music by Zach Sobiech [Principal contributing Two-Part arranger]
Music Preparation and Production
Having spent years in musical sound design, I have the tools to create fully realized accompaniment tracks and musical renderings.
