Spotlight on: Jason Nyberg
and learn more about him here:
Jason Nyberg has been composing and arranging music for over 20 years. His close association with Yamaha as a concert artist and music programmer has led to many opportunities in the music and entertainment industries. Currently he is scoring Disney’s new television show, “Aaron Stone” which debuts on Disney’s new cable channel coming in February.
“I’m proud to have worked with Yamaha for the last two decades,” Nyberg says. “They make the world’s best instruments and Yamaha keyboards are an integrated part of the music I write on a daily basis.”
Nyberg also writes music for movie trailers (”coming attractions”) such as the recent trailer for “Ghosttown” and has had music in over 50 trailers in all. Recently he had another prestigious credit: “One of my most exciting musical moments was hearing my music during the 2008 Academy Awards.”
He also works with the development of Alfred Publishing’s popular piano course, creating accompaniment recordings that can be used along with the books.
Nyberg has also been featured in several “Watch and Learn” tutorial videos from MIDItainment Corporation which teach the basics of Yamaha keyboards. “We’re working on some really big projects for keyboard players,” Nyberg comments.” Along with Tom Folenta, an amazing musician and marketing specialist, we’re creating an online destination for amateur keyboard players that will be a one-stop shop for everything related to keyboards - products, lessons and entertainment.”
Nyberg currently lives in Minnesota with his wife Jenny and three (soon to be four) children; Ryan, Sean and Grace.
