Jordan Morrison is an active composer, arranger, educator, and performer. As an educator, he has taught in public schools, private schools, non-profit programs, and private studios. He has been a full-time staff member at W.O. Smith since 2016 and was a volunteer prior to that. He has taught a wide variety of music courses including Jazz Band, Marching Band, Steelband, Concert Band, Rock Band, Orchestra, Choir, General Music, World Music, Music Theory, Audio Production, Music Composition, and many more. Jordan has had the opportunity to serve by training and mentoring hundreds of teachers and thousands of students throughout his career. He has been a featured educator/clinician for Berklee’s City Music Summit and Ohio Music Education Association Conference. As a composer and performer, Jordan has enjoyed a wide array of wonderful and strange opportunities. These range from a stadium performance for a bowling conference to composing the music for two seasons of a live soap opera, performing in a giant outdoor tent for a Motorcyclist Revival, and leading a virtual drum circle for people with cochlear implants.
Professionally, Jordan spends most of his time teaching, training, mentoring, composing, arranging, and recording. Personally, he loves spending time with his family, camping, gardening, hiking, and being mediocre at tons of hobbies.
