JAMISON STEVENS

Conductor   —   Composer

Jamison Stevens (he/him) (b. 2000) is a conductor and composer from Redlands, California. He is currently pursuing a master’s of music degree in choral conducting from the University of Redlands, where he also received, with honors, a bachelor’s of music degree in music composition. There, he directs the Youth Choir program and serves as a graduate assistant and assistant conductor to the Chapel Singers and University Choir. He studies under Nicholle Andrews, and has worked with Co Boi Nguyen and Donald Brinegar. Jamison is also the director of music at Community Presbyterian Church in Redlands. 

          As a conductor, Jamison has proudly collaborated with a number of young composers, premiering new works in concerts, recitals, and recording sessions. He has conducted the University’s choirs in their choral concerts, Compline services, and for the Feast of Lights, a renowned Christmas tradition at the University of Redlands. Under his direction, the University of Redlands Youth Choir program recently performed with the Redlands Symphony Orchestra in their performance of The Nutcracker.

          Collaboration has also been a significant part of Jamison's work as a composer. With composer Timothy Cunningham, they have composed works including Hymns of the Nativity (2019), written for choir and orchestra for the 72nd Feast of Lights, and 12 and Change (2021), written for choir and piano for the appointment of the twelfth president of the University of Redlands. Jamison has also had his own compositions—including choral, vocal, and instrumental works—performed at recitals, concerts, and church services across the country.
