Jackson Berkey sound familar? Think Mannheim Steamroller!

Jackson Berkey’s published catalog offers more than 300 compositions for solo voice, solo instruments, choir, orchestra, and chamber groups. With roots in classical music, he has won a variety of composition awards from the Alienor Harpsichord competition to the 2000 "New Music for Young Ensembles", NYC, with his Piano Trio Kassarjian. He publishes with Walton Music Corporation, SDG Press®, and Plymouth Music. An ASCAP award-winning composer, his catalog of works receives hundreds of performances and recordings from professional choral and chamber music ensembles such as The Los Angeles Master Chorale to Fukuii (Japan) Renaissance Ensemble to the Brooklyn Youth Chorus and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Nebraska awarded him top honors in 1999 with the Individual Artist Fellowship for Performing Arts, Distinguished Achievement in Composition Award.

Jackson is also well-known nationally as a pianist and recording artist. He is the featured keyboardist on the Mannheim Steamroller Fresh Aire and platinum Christmas recordings. His solo classical albums, Sunken Cathedral, Ballade, and 109 have brought rave reviews, as have the piano concerto movements recorded on The Mozart Collection with John Rutter and the City of London Sinfonia. SDG Records released Harpsichord Carols with harpsichordist Berkey and harpist Kathy Bundock Moore playing his arrangements (2001) and Berkey Meets Horowitz on the 503 (1994) with Jackson performing his Piano Derivations and American Perspective One on the Horowitz Steinway.
