Artist Profile
Composer/Pianist Jann Levinson met her first muse as an elementary school student using a silent wooden keyboard. She studied classical piano and music composition in New York City with various private teachers including well-known music educator Robert Sharon, and then attended and graduated from Bard College, where she was privileged to work with award-winning composer Joan Tower and The Da Capo Chamber Players. Ms. Levinson's early work is recorded on the Composers Recordings, Inc. label.

In 1992 Jann moved from the East Coast to Wyoming where she found nature, her new muse, and she has been creating neoclassical works for piano and orchestral instruments, inspired by the Grand Teton mountain range and other "places." She likes to call herself a "place composer" as her passion is writing in sound what she visually sees and emotionally or spiritually feels. To this end Ms. Levinson has composed music for two Compact Discs: "Teton Seasons," released in 1997 and "Sunrise," released in 2000 with a concert at The National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where Ms. Levinson resides. She has also written music for other "places" including Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, the Campanile Bell Tower in Venice, Italy, Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Canyon and the Point Reyes National Seashore in Northern California.

Jann's "Grand Teton Suite" for full orchestra with solo piano was premiered by The Jackson Hole Symphony Orchestra in 2002 with Eric Wenstrom, conductor, and Ms. Levinson on piano. The piece was recently re-orchestrated for full orchestra and no soloist. She has also finished a new work inspired by the Wind River Mountains and Reservation in Wyoming scored for flute, oboe, clarinet and piano which was commissioned by The Wyoming Music Teachers' Association for their convention, utilizing the American Indian wood flute and the culture's gift for rhythm and chant. The new work, entitled "The Winds" was premiered in Springs, WY. Jann's next CD, scheduled for release in 2004, will include various works for piano and other orchestral instruments, including her new work for oboe and piano, "Aurora" commissioned by oboist Roger Watson.

Ms. Levinson recently received the Second Place Award in the Solo Instrumental category, for her work "Snowbow", from her Sunrise CD, from Just Plain Folks, the Internet's largest community of independent musicians. The piece was chosen from 140,000 submitted songs. Jann recently attended the Award Ceremony in Hollywood where she received this prestigious honor.

Jann composes music daily and teaches piano, voice and composition to children and adults. She has created specialized music programs for the C Bar V Ranches, the Jackson Hole Theatre Company, The Journey's School and the Pumpkin Patch Preschool. She is listed on both the Wyoming Arts Council's "Arts Across Wyoming" and "Arts In Education" Rosters and performs throughout the region. Jann is currently working on a series of new piano music books for children and has recently published her own works for solo piano which are available through her website and at various national music dealers.
